A display system for a vehicle comprises: a rear view camera (24, figure 3) for obtaining images external to the vehicle and associated with a rear of the vehicle; an image receiving area 18 associated with a windscreen 12 of the vehicle; and a controller (26) which causes the images received from the camera to be displayed on the image receiving area so that a driver of the vehicle can see what is occurring at the rear of the vehicle without using a rear view mirror. An image receiving area 18 similar to that on the windshield may be provided on a side window 14 so that images from a side camera (30) may also be seen. The image receiving areas may comprise an electronic display or transparent to translucent switchable glass onto which the images are projected. A sensor may monitor a position of the drivers head or eyes so as to determine when to send images to be displayed. In an alternative embodiment (figure 5) the images may be displayed on glasses worn by the driver.
