death by liberty

Agreed. And to steal an idea from Brock Yates, the sensors should be wired to something that runs at least 50 Kv thru your head to get your attention.

I agree completely. First, I NEVER leave my vehicle running, unless my husband is sitting in it. I don't want it to get stolen. If they steal the jeep with him in it then.. they'll bring it back soon enough.

Whenever our little grandson is with us, it can be a great lot of hassle to get him in and out of that car seat but SO WHAT, I can't even imagine leaving him in the car... We just haul him in and out. Or if it is a quickie stop, one of us waits in the Jeep with him. Simple as that.

People make mistakes, and sadly it ends in a tragedy sometimes but I do think that the OP in this case may be a troll. Good subject of conversation though.

Her husband or grandson?

No, and from what I hear I shouldn't expect any either....

This reminds me of the following story a friend sent me:

That's my plan for any car theft alarm with an audible signal.

Perhaps a sensor that shuts down the vehicle if it is being operted by an individual with an IQ less than 50.

Or a cell phone off hook, although for that I'd prefer to trigger all air bags.

Oddly, an IQ of 50 is considered only "mildly retarded."
