## Narrative
I have HD surround vision cameras.  I was parallel parking very slowly.  The back end of my truck was in so I was watching the camera to see the front right of my truck and the back left of the other vehicle.  I could see both vehicles including the road between them.  There was space between the vehicles on the camera when I hit the other car.  I called Sewell Buick Gmc and explained the camera might need calibrating.  They sent a loaner car and picked mine up,  When the driver arrived I explained the situation.  It surprised his so I said get in my truck and put in reverse to activated the camera and watch me as I walk toward the right front tire.  He saw mw as I approached, however, when I got right next to the tire I disappeared from she screen. GM said the vehicle was operating as designed.  Operating as designed?  They designed a SURROUND camera to show objects until they get next to the vehicle.  Imagine if it was a toddler.
