In my first case, I turned around and looked back. Then looked forward, then looked in the monitor and saw that the mom next to me who was loading her babe in the car had pushed the stroller behind the car. It happened faster than you would think - just bad timing I guess.

If I had to have one or the other, I would pick the backup radar, as I don't always remember to look into the monitor.
