Can I have a Back up camera in my road test car?

I am going to go for my road test soon in New york, on Long island. The car I was to use is a 2007 Nissian Murano, which has a back up camera built into the dash board and cannot be removed or turned off. Will this be allowed for use in the test?

    I don't see any literature that prevents you from having a back up camera in the road test vehicle. Just be sure to follow proper backup procedures such as the arm over seat/turning head, and don't rely on the backup camera, and you should be fine.

    NY only requires that the test vehicle that you provide is "properly registered, inspected, insured and equipped, and in good working order, including doors and seat belts. The passenger side seat belt must be readily available and clean for the examiner's use." and that you have someone with a valid driver's license who is over age 21 accompany you to the test site with the vehicle.
