Rear Occupant Alert System

**sparc179** · September 25th, 2019 06:11 PM

Forgetting pets or even kids inside a locked vehicle. What could be worse for any parent or guardian? Especially in a hot country like Da Pilipins? [emoji30]

Hopefully, this can be standard in all vehicles someday.

I won’t pass judgment on those people. But if this safety feature can prevent child deaths, why not?

30 some-odd years ago, nobody wore seatbelts. When the government enforced the seatbelt law, andaming nag compain.... kesyo di namn daw sila tanga at maaaksidene. Pero ano nangari? Everybody wears one now. Automatic na sa karamihan pag sakay ng car.

Compared noon, mas pre-occupied din mga tao ngayon, what with all the distractions, pressure, et al. It’s only a matter of time. That feature is another layer of protection for the child, a safety net. I’m all for it.

Exactly my point as well. People may disagree and think it's superfluous and not essential, until the day comes when it happens to them or someone they love and then they think, 'sana pala may ganun tayong feature sa sasakyan natin.

Kapag sobrang busy na tayo minsan nakakalimutan natin wallet, cellfone, etc naiiwan natin sa kung saan-saan, kaya hindi malabong mangyari yung mga scenario na nangyayari sa ibang bansa.

People always think, that's never going to happen to me or my family/ friends. Until it does.

That's going to be good for vehicles with 3 or more rows since the driver may not realize he has a stowaway sleeping on one of the rear seats or the floor.

People tend to rely too much on automation that sometimes makes them forget the basics...

Same sa aviation that rely too much on automation na nawawalan na ng skill yung pilot..

Nice to have pero sana hindi mawala yung "basics" sa driving.. some people don't even check their vehicles before they drive...

Well, recently, a woman passenger got left behind on an airplane in Canada.

The Philippines may be a third world country, but the stress we are all experiencing -- from traffic, to work, to family, to pollution, etc. -- are anything but third world. All this make us prone to make mistakes -- small ones and big ones.

How could a passenger be left behind on an Air Canada plane? And could it happen in Australia? - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)

How could a passenger be left behind on an Air Canada plane?

"Ms Adams says she fell asleep "less than halfway" into her 90-minute flight to Toronto.

"I got super comfy reading my book, happy I scored my row all to myself," she said on Facebook.

But Ms Adams said a few hours later, around midnight, she woke up alone on the plane, in complete darkness, with her seatbelt still buckled around her.

The plane had been parked and she could see the lights of Toronto's Pearson International Airport in the distance."
