seat belt reminder system

A seat belt reminder system is a safety feature in vehicles that alerts drivers and passengers to fasten their seat belts. It typically involves sensors that detect whether the seat belts are engaged. If the vehicle is started and a seat belt remains unbuckled, the system triggers visual or audible alerts—such as lights on the dashboard or chimes—to remind occupants to buckle up. This helps improve safety by encouraging consistent seat belt use, which can significantly reduce injuries in the event of a crash. The system activates automatically when the vehicle is powered on and continues to prompt until belts are secured.
