    Another program is capable of warning you if you’ve forgotten the seatbelt. It is also a good thing, because the person would be more informed, and remember it, and at the end do it automatically. If the driver keeps ignoring the sounds, the device could inform parents, that the driver continues to demonstrate risky driving behaviors. Of course it is an exceedingly effective and helpful program, but personally I would not prefer it. If I drove a car with such a program, I wouldn’t feel comfortable. I would always think that there are might someone watching all my actions and it would not feel right.

  • Bike Helmets

    Have you ever known somebody who was injured in a car accident? What do you think his attitude about seat belts was after they saved his life? If you knew that a seat belt would save your life, you would buckle up! It took years of legislation and public awareness campaigns to make seat belt use mandatory. Now a new topic regarding public safety is coming to light: people are dying or becoming seriously injured in seemingly minor accidents on bicycles when the rider's head strikes the concrete. When the head is unprotected "the brain continues to move in a forward motion while the skull stops moving" (Macyko1), causing trauma. What is needed is a way to protect the brain "by absorbing the energy from the impact, buying extra time for the brain to slow down" (Macyko1). Bicycle riders need to wear helmets to protect their brains from injury, yet unfortunately the public is simply not aware of this need and many people will continue to die or be seriously injured unless something is done. Bicycle helmets save lives and should be required by Arizona State law for riders of all ages.
