Each year, an alarming number of children are killed from back over incidents.
In fact, just over a weekend, a two–year-old boy was killed after his father accidentally ran the car over him in 300 Block of El Paso Street in Merkel, Texas.
Due to sequencing fatal accidents in driveways, the Auto safety regulators aim to prevent children from getting injured or killed from back over incidents.
According to the Arrow Ford Sales Manager, Shanna Kevil, the company has witnessed more requests from parents seeking for the rearview camera technology in cars.
Based on figures released by the KidsAndCars for 2006 to 2010, a total of 448 children have died from driveway accidents. Therefore, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration plans to require all car manufacturers to make rearview cameras as standard in all new cars by 2014.
Kevil agreed that the rearview camera is indeed a great idea. He attested that more and more people buying cars prefer the one with a rearview camera installed and if the car they prefer does not have the device installed, people often request the manufacturer to have it installed in their opted car.
Talking about the car‘s price if these rearview mirrors are installed in all new vehicles, car manufacturers admitted that the car’s cost will definitely increase. However, Kevil said that if ever the device has been mandated soon by the traffic law enforcement, its price is expected to level down.
If drivers are opting to add a rearview camera in their car, approximately it will cost up to $550.
Last February, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration tried to get the rule pass in Congress but the transportation opposed saying that the bill needs further research.
Obviously, people are now opting for the device in cars regardless of its cost. Therefore, he bill might probably pass the Congress since it is widely requested by people across the globe for safety purposes.
