Sounds like something you will have to do some research on. For your particular area. Keep in mind the ScopeOut units are not in the direct field of view of the driver they are designed to be set on the outer top corners of the glass. Hope this helps.
ScopeOut does not obstruct the drivers view, on the contrary it expands it. Yes many states prohibit obstruction but most of them are referring to the front windshield. This product is installed on the rear window. For additional information you might want to check out their web site sensetech
@hantony77, hi. Actually, many states prohibit things attached to, or blocking, the rear window, such as lamps, stuffed animals, etc. I understand that devices like this provide a view of additional areas, but that doesn't necessarily exempt them from laws against obstructing a rear window. As an extreme example, if I develop a rear-view camera that substitutes for a rear mirror, but in order to install it you have to paint half of your rear window solid black, that's going to be illegal.

Are these street-legal in ALL states? Many states prohibit objects that obstruct the view out of windows.
Seems very important to clarify that legality issue for customers...
Also, do you have any links to independent reviews? I haven't yet found any such reviews online. ...Thanks.
