Abstract
A system that enables enhanced vision while driving a vehicle generally three respects: (1) extended vision in front and perpendicular to the vehicle, (2) rearward vision without the 'blind' spots caused by mirrors and (3) rear detection of faster oncoming traffic. A pair of side view cameras integrated into the headlight assembly of a vehicle allows extended vision perpendicular to the direction of vehicular travel, such that an obstruction beside the vehicle will not block vision. A pair of rear view cameras also preferably integrated into the headlight assembly of the vehicle allows rearward vision to be displayed where a rear view mirror is typically positioned. A speed and distance-detecting device, such as a laser or radar gun, is mounted near the rear bumper in order to observe the speed of an approaching vehicle.
