The only scenerio I see with a cross traffic is being high enough to avoid the disruption a high profile vehicle moving at speed makes to the local area. Could tumble a 'quad. Now you get into focus and adequate resolution.
Above 20-mph it isn't an issue for road vehicles.
Don't test in 'traffic.'
Don't test in 'wind'.
