In the news we have been seeing a lot of the same types of recalls on vehicles, air bags, brake pin coming out and cars shifting out of park on their own...
Like Malware software for computers its purpose is to protect you in the times that your software is most vulnerable, usually between security patch updates, this can be applied to automobiles as well...
They have implemented auto braking and automatic parallel parking for cars for the times either you're not paying attention or just don't know how to parallel park and don't want to look like a fool...
The auto braking feature is like a Malware program that protects you when you're not paying attention, this feature should be applied to when the driver is out of the vehicle...
With the car coming out of Park is a place where the braking system can provide additional services to protect you from faulty equipment or user error...
Recently a great Actor had been killed by their car pinning them between a wall and the back of the car because either they forgot to put it in park, or the car came out of park...
sidenote: Should be investigated...
Either scenario shouldn't happen in our opinion and tragedy's like this should never happen, if you were to just implement a weight sensor in the seat(s)...
What we see is that the car would have a minimum weight limit set for the driver and possibly the passenger seat as well to monitor when the car is unoccupied, running or not...
It can't be the same weight of the driver because more than one person can drive a car, so it has to be set at a minimum weight of 5-20 pounds...
As you know Backup is what we love most about computers and we try to apply that passion into everything we do, so having a weight backup program to prevent accidental roll would be ideal...
It's the same principle you see at the U-Scan checkouts that keep track of the weight of food that is scanned to prevent theft, the same can be done with a backup braking system...
RIP Anton Yelchin Mar 11, 1989 - Jun 19, 2016
You will be missed...
**UPDATE**
The SUV that rolled down a driveway and killed "Star Trek" actor Anton Yelchin was being recalled because the gear shifters have confused drivers, causing the vehicles to roll away unexpectedly, government records show...
...is being investigated...
