  • The Connected Car and Privacy Navigating New Data Issues
    THE CONNECTED CAR AND PRIVACY NAVIGATING NEW DATA ISSUES THE CONNECTED CAR AND PRIVACY NAVIGATING NEW DATA ISSUES November 13, 2014 ABSTRACT New technologies in vehicles promise drivers real advances in safety and convenience, but will only be welcomed by consumers if they can be sure their personal data will be handled in a trustworthy manner. Privacy principles adopted by leading auto makers set a responsible course for new uses of biometric, behavioral and location data and should help avoid any privacy bumps in the road. This brief paper seeks to provide an overview of the technologies currently available in cars and identifies the types of data collected and the purposes for which it is used. We then turn to identify the new types of data collection that are now or soon to be available and identify common uses of that data. Our goal is to help inform media, policymakers, advocates and others about the vehicle data environment and help identify privacy issues that are relevant. INTRODUCTION The use of computers and data by automobiles is nothing new. Computerized systems began appearing in cars as early as 1969, and standardization of on-board diagnostics (OBD) in the 1990s further facilitated the collection of data within cars.1 But the installation of more computer chips and electronics components have helped introduce new technologies that are significantly increasing the data volume produced by a car. According to an estimate by Industry Solutions Automotive & Mobility, new information about vehicle usage, wear and tear, or defects will grow from approximately 4 megabytes to over 5 gigabytes of data per vehicle per month.2 This white paper surveys the collection of data inside the vehicle ecosystem and explores how connectivity and the “connected car” augment or change how that information is collected and eventually used.

  • Safety in the Car – How to Protect Yourself and Your Child for Your Own Safety
    Safety in the car – how to protect yourself and your child For your own safety In this brochure you will find information about how to increase safety in your car. You get tips about how to ensure your child travels in the safest way, and how you can reduce the risk of injury to yourself. Collision safety How well a car survives a collision gives a good idea of how safe the car is. For this reason, various methods are used to find out how safe a car is in a collision, and consumers are then informed. In Sweden, consumer information about collision safety comes mainly from two sources – Euro NCAP and Folksam. Whiplash the most common injury Every year, around 20 000 Swedes suffer whiplash injuries. By far the most com- mon cause of whiplash injury is when a car is driven into from behind. Whiplash injury can also occur in frontal collisions, accidents involving one car only and sometimes also outside the traffic environment. The best way to protect against se- rious whiplash injury is to choose a car that provides effective protection. Airbags, headrests and seat settings are important to protect against whiplash injury. Remember to protect your neck • Raise the backrest. • Set the headrest so that the whole head is supported. The headrest should preferably extend up to the top of your head. • Sit close to the backrest and headrest. • Keep a proper distance to the car in front. • If you have time to see in your rear view mirror that you will be driven into from behind, press your head against the headrest and do not turn your head.

  • Make Safe Choices When Buckling up Children Children Younger Than Age 13 Should Ride in a Back Seat
    Make Safe Choices When Buckling Up Children Children who are correctly buckled in a car seat, booster seat, or seat belt benefit from the single most effective way to protect vehicle occupants and reduce fatalities in a crash. Securing children in age and size appropriate car seats is the best way to keep children safe. It is also important to increase booster seat/ seat belt use among children age 8 through 13 and spread the message that they are safer in the back seat of a vehicle. By educating children and families on the importance of occupant protection, they will make buckling up a habit for life. Selection: Choose a car seat, booster seat, or seat belt based on the child’s age, height, weight, and developmental level. Direction: Children should remain rear-facing as long as possible, until they reach the top height or weight limits allowed by the manufacturer. Location: Select a seating position with seat belts that can be locked or approved for LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren) to secure the car seat. Children should remain in a back seat through age 12. Installation: Read and follow the car seat manufacturer’s instructions and vehicle manual for guidance on correctly installing and using the car seat, booster seat, and seat belt. Harnessing: Place the harness through the correct slots and secure the child snugly with the harness retainer clip at armpit level. You should NOT be able to pinch excess webbing at the shoulder or hips once the harness is buckled. Before Baby Arrives - Buckling up through all stages of pregnancy is the single most effective action to protect you and your unborn child in a crash.

  • Why Is Child Passenger Safety Important
    Child Safety Seat Guide 1 2 3 4 Rear-facing Forward-facing with Booster Seats Seat Belts Harnesses Advice for Stage & Seat Transitions 1. Children should use rear-facing car seats in the back seat as long as possible to the rear-facing height and weight limits for the seat (even up to age 2 or 3). If your car seat has a rear-facing weight limit of 22 pounds or less, you should change to a convertible car seat with higher rear- facing limits and keep rear-facing for longer. Leg crowding is expected and okay. It does not cause harm as long as the child is within the weight and height limits for the seat. 2. Keep your child rear-facing until the top weight or height limits for the rear-facing car seat. Once top rear-facing limits are reached, use a forward-facing car seat with a harness and a tether. Keep your child in a car seat with a harness until he or she reaches the top height or weight limit for the harness. 3. Use car seats with harnesses to the top weight or height limits for the harnesses. Once children outgrow harnesses, use a booster seat in the back seat until the seat belt fits properly. A booster seat is often needed until a child is around 4 feet 9 inches tall. Your child may be about 12 years old before he/she is ready for a seat belt. 4. Older children should use a lap-shoulder seat belt in the back seat once they outgrow a booster seat.

  • Inflatable Seat Belt Policy As of March 1, 2016
    Inflatable Seat Belt Policy As of March 1, 2016 Angel Guard www.angel-guard.com/ Sufficient test data or test equipment is not available to Angel Guard Products at this time to sufficiently evaluate use of the AngelRide Infant Car Bed with inflatable vehicle shoulder belts. For this reason, Angel Guard Products does not allow installation or use of the AngelRide Infant Car Bed with any Inflatable Shoulder Belt. If your vehicle has Inflatable Shoulder Belts, install the AngelRide Infant Car Bed in a position which is not equipped with Inflatable Shoulder Belts such as the center seating position in the second row or a third row seating position. For more information: [email protected] or call customer service at 330-723-5928 Baby Trend (as of 8/11/2014) http://www.babytrend.com Currently, Baby Trend does not permit the use of inflatable seat belts with any Baby Trend products no matter the date of manufacture. There has not been enough testing data provided to definitively demonstrate that they are safe. This will be added to the Incompatible Seat Belt section in our manuals as they are revised and updated. Baby Trend continues to review inflatable seat belt compatibility and may change our position as more data becomes available.
