A system and method provide rearward viewing for a vehicle driver. The rearward viewing system includes left side and right side video cameras for obtaining video image rearwardly outwardly from the sides of the vehicle. Left side and right side electronic image displays display portions of the images. A vehicle interior driver monitoring camera senses an upper body position of a driver. An electronic processor is configured to receive an upper body position and determine portions of the left side video images to display on the left side electronic image display, and to determine portions of the right side video images to display on the right side electronic image display. Additional movements of a driver adjust a field of view of the left side video images by changing portions thereof that are provided to the left side electronic image display. Right side and rearview images are also adjusted.
