Part 7/9:
While vehicle manufacturers have made strides in safety technology, including installing seat belt reminder systems in front seats, the same is not yet standard for rear seats in many vehicles. Today, many cars lack rear seat belt reminders, contributing to complacency.
Some regions, such as the EU, US, and India, have introduced or are considering regulations mandating rear seat belt reminder systems. In Singapore, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) has acknowledged the importance but indicates that current standards do not require such features in older vehicles, though discussions about future requirements are ongoing.
