I'm betting that the next Safety Nanny crusade will involve the brain-dead morons who "forget" their kids are in the back seat and leave them in their car in the broiling sun.
I wonder what electronic panacea will be mandated to absolve those imbeciles of responsibility?


Judging b what we have seen so far, it will probably add $3000 to the cost of the car and explode the windows so your toddler doesn't overheat. Of course, these systems will be a bit problematic and wear out (like TPMS), so when you car hits 4 years old, there is a good chance the windows will blow.


Post of the day. Now where is that big cup icon from one year ago?

my new toyota rav4 has a backup camera.

I do not like it.

It will take some getting used to, but it deffinitely belongs on vehicles with poor rear visibility.

It does not need to be on entry level cars however.

Camera helps you to protect those bumper's paint.
