You’ll be nice if they added blindspot monitoring for when you’re turning or changing lanes.

I use the side view camera indicators when I'm turning or changing lanes. Those are in my field of vision whereas the camera display is not.

If you are meaning that a camera view appears on one of the displays, it does not. In the W214, the blind spot indicator is in the mirror. It also uses the ambient lights that will flash red on the side of the car if your blinker is on and a vehicle is near. That along with the audible beeps really grab your attention. If that's not enough, the collision avoidance will resist you and turn the wheel if necessary. No camera function though.

I wonder if that is called Evasive Steering Assist. They might had changed the term for the W214 or all bundled in one suite now.

​​​​​​It annoys me very much when I am leaving a carpark and have to guess if I am to turn left or right to carry on my journey because the damn reverse camera is preventing my SatNav from showing me the way !! I have to drive in the wrong direction (often) before reversing camera goes off, for the SatNav to tell I have to turn around.
I don't get any of your comments about looking behind you using the camera - that is what your mirrors are for!
The camera should immediately switch off as soon as you engage drive in my opinion.
​
Again, part of the reason is so the camera doesn’t keep popping in and out. Also, when I pull into my garage, the rear camera shows me when I have cleared the garage door, while moving forward. Don’t think the mirrors work for that.

I think you can just hit the radio button and the rear camera turns off and screen goes to radio settings.

Yes, if it doesn't work, try holding it, or just click the back cursor button.
