Australian, I actually took a photo to show my point today. Technically didn't reverse back because it's back to back parks and you can drive through the first to be in the second, but same end result. My hood is 0.82% of the washington monument, presuming the information i found was correct (1400mm hood, 169m monument).

Sorry about it being a discord link, that's just the most convenient thing for me right now as apparently I can't just upload the image to the comment. Or I just don't know how, either way. Can't see shit to my left, I just happened to know there wasn't anyone coming from when I got in the car, but if I didn't it would be a massive pain in the arse despite leaving the park forwards.

I'd argue you still have a lot more visibility than if you were facing the other way. And you have to slide out a lot less to get a good-enough line of sight.

Either way I'm blind if there's a big fucker next to me at the start, and it's about 1/5th of the car moved to see either way. I guess that's car dependant though, it's only my direct rear visibility that sucks and sideways back is fine but I've definitely been in cars where trying to see what's next to you and a bit back is hard.
