| Roadmaster Ships Wireless Backup Camera Roadmaster USA announces that it has begun shipping the Roadmaster VR3 Wireless Backup Camera. Essential for every large car, SUV, mini-van, and truck, the VR3 Wireless Backup Camera protects playing children, pets, and pedestrians from being hurt by providing a completely unobstructed rear view of the vehicle. The Roadmaster Wireless VR3 Backup Camera provides greatly needed protection from backing-up accidents with wireless ease-of use. Anyone can install it in a few minutes without the hassle of visiting your car dealership to set it up. The camera's 2.5-inch color LCD screen quickly mounts on the car's dashboard or visor and the lens easily fits along the bottom of the rear license-plate, providing safe rear-viewing while backing up. It can be on at all times or activated only when the car is put into reverse. More than 2.400 children are accidentally backed-up over each year in the U.S., and of those, more than 100 die. With the proliferation of SUVs and mini-vans, drivers aren't aware of the enormous rear view blind spots that prevent them from seeing what's behind them, especially small objects, animals, people, and children. Some of these blind spots are even greater than the length of an average driveway. Senators Hillary Clinton (D-New York) and John Sununu (R-New Hampshire) have recently proposed legislation requiring the U.S. Department of Transportation to issue regulations aimed at reducing accidents that frequently kill or injure children in cars. But until that legislation is passed, it's up to the driver to protect their loved-ones and prevent a tragedy by using a backup camera. The Roadmaster VR3 Wireless Backup Camera comes complete with all the accessories needed, so there's nothing extra to buy. It can be easily installed wirelessly by the consumer and is can be used with any 12 Volt DC electrical system. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Computing News :: home page |
