The invention relates to a system and method to provide an adaptive rear view display for a vehicle. A first vehicle 100 includes a rear view camera 104 and an adaptive display controller 116, the adaptive display controller is used to determine, with range detection sensors 106, a following- time of a second vehicle 102 behind the first vehicle. Additionally, the adaptive display controller is also used determine a workload estimate/state of the driver associated with the first vehicle. When the first vehicle is moving forward, the adaptive display controller selectively displays video from the rear view camera based on the following- time and the workload estimate. The system may also be used to calculate a velocity of the second vehicle and a distance between the two vehicles. Additionally, the system may selectively display video depending on a threshold for workload estimate and or threshold for the follow time. Lastly, the adaptive display may display video for the rear view camera upon request of the driver
