    I noticed that in the update 0.25, they changed the way the driver camera view works. While it's nice that I no longer have to hold the mouse button in while turning or to otherwise look any direction other that straight ahead, I find it slightly annoying that there isn't any way to have the camera "snap back" to the default position without changing or resetting the vehicle.

    Say that the image below is approximately the default camera position (I had already moved the camera and realized it does'nt snap back anymore when I took this)

    and when I moved the camera, to help you visualize incase my expalnation in words is unclear, I found out that it no longer snaps back like in previous game versions, but stays in whatever direction it was looking, as shown here:

    While as said above, this is more convenient when turning, I still think that it should snap back to default forward facing position if we right click twice or maybe if we left click, rather that trying to realign it by hand and eyeball

    I thought it snapped back when you started driving so you can click the centre console controls in the Scintilla while it's parked without it snapping back, I could be misremembering though
    If i'm correct, I think it should be an optional thing for people who don't like it

    I just checked and it actually does, but I still feel there should be a way to have snap back in stationary vehicles as well. I know I probably sound a little OCD but this just kinda annoys me personally

    Not to mention that it also snaps back to facing forward when backing up (driving reverse) which is a bit odd as well
