TIL: #Automotive #research centre Thatcham Research is indeed called that because its based in #Thatcham (near #Newbury in Southern England)
I'm surprised so many people don't wear a #seatBelt in #cars even today - I can remember when they were uncomfortable and ill-fitting but they have vastly improved over the years and I almost feel naked if I haven't put mine on..

Loose #seatbelt buckle in #GolfGTI (had been there since I got the car in May) had been annoying me (even though it must have passed MOT inspection, which was done in April).
This video is from yesterday - spent part of that evening researching how the buckle 5G4 857 756 E YLZ fits to the seat, and how on earth to get at nut N 989 24 301 (which I suspected had worked loose)
This afternoon started with a trip to Euro Car Parts for a set of #XZN / #TripleSquare / #spline bits (widely used on #VW as well as Torx, but I didn't have any - they seem to have 3 names for the same thing)

#AI #traffic #surveillance #cameras designed in #Australia and also used in #Aotearoa / #NZ have been trialled in #Devon and #Cornwall #UK - they can detect #mobile #phone use, #seatbelt violations and its now claimed they can even detect #DUI (possibly through monitoring unusual driving such as not keeping constant speeds / straying out of correct lanes) on top of the usual #ANPR capabilities.. #cars #motoring #RoadSafety

Mistodon: if you don't like cigarette warning labels your'e going to hate this -- #Seatbelt Day! Wildly this holiday (where we festively crash into obstacles unscathed?) was launched in 2019 as part of a joint venture by belt innovator Volvo and disruptive newcomer Uber in an attempt to reach that final 10% of the population who refuse to #BuckleUp despite their car's irritating audible alarms. This #ANSIart depiction of a three-point shoulder and lap belt was drawn by AdeptApril.

CW: Car accident
#PSA - Wear your #seatbelt! My mom (now in her 70s) always used to tell us as kids that "the car won't start unless you're buckled up!"
She rolled her Scion going over 50mph (65kph) this past weekend, and came away from it with nothing worse than bruises. The car didn't make it, nor did the airbag deploy, but it *did* crumple in such a way as to keep the driver safe.
As car accidents go, hers was pretty metal. Hope I'm half as sturdy at her age.

ai is just a tool - people conflate ai with big tech, any tool can be misused but don't doom ai for potential bad outcomes, you have to look at the good side as well and i think that outweighs the bad but it does have to get more distributed and sussed out - that is happening just with any tech - people were scared of computers and cars, now they don't give them a second thought #seatbelts are new fashioned gizmos #seatbelt laws
