Waze Beta Now Reminds Parents Not To Leave Their Kids In The Car

waze_child_reminderIt’s unfortunate but sometimes you hear about it in the news where a parent forgot that their child is in the car and run off to do their errands, only to come back a few hours later and discover their child has died due to a heatstroke. Thankfully the folks at Waze want to do something about it, and in their latest beta they included a child reminder.

Basically the app will now come with a child reminder that when enabled, will prompt users that they have a child in the car. This prompt will appear once the driver has reached their destination. Of course it’s not always that you might travel with your kids, but we suppose leaving it on probably wouldn’t hurt.

We suppose while it is technically a child reminder, it could work for pets as we have also heard stories of how some pet owners have forgotten about their pets, or have left their pets in the car thinking that a few minutes probably wouldn’t hurt (it does), so hopefully with this new feature from Waze, parents and pet owners will be more aware and reminded that it’s not ok to leave your kids or pets in the car.
