According
to Kidsafe WA, a child prevention foundation in Western Australia, one child is
accidentally run over in their own driveway every week in Australia. What's
more alarming is that 4WDs are not the only types of vehicles involved in such
unfortunate situations. Many popular family sedans are also being tagged as the
culprit because of having extensive blind spots.
The
death or risk of serious injury to children caused by driveway accidents has
captured the attention of everyone in Australia. Throughout the years, the Department
of Infrastructure and Regional Development, as well as many road safety and
injury specialists have examined such incidents and come up with potential
solutions to prevent such tragedies. One of these solutions is the installation
of a reversing camera kit in one's
vehicle.
Young
children are naturally inquisitive and want to see what's going on, according
to Kidsafe WA. They are surprisingly fast and before you know it, they have
already placed themselves into the path of a moving vehicle. Because of this
inquisitiveness, they are at a greater risk of being involved in a driveway
accident. But with the help of a rear
view camera, you can protect your kids and keep them safe.
One
of the advantages of having reversing cameras is that they allow you to see
objects at the back of your car immediately. They give you more time to react
and stop your vehicle. Parking sensors, on the other hand, don't usually work
fast enough and with them, you may not notice a small child behind your car
until it is too late to stop.
Today,
newer car models are being sold with built-in cameras because of the added
safety they provide car owners and their families with. However, you don't have
to buy a new car just to prevent fatal accidents from occurring right in your
driveway. There are a wide range of aftermarket camera systems that you can
purchase and install in your vehicle. Regardless of whether you own a 4WD, a
small van, or a family sedan, you can be sure to find a camera kit, including rearview mirror monitor reversing camera, that
matches your specific requirements.
