I thought we have indicator on the main panel of EVERY car (most of them beeping like crazy) if any seatbelts are not buckled for taken seats. LOL. Technically noone looks at the buckles EVER, it's such a basic movement to buckle them.

Apple should remove the seat belt entirely and make it a DLC.

This is no surprise, needing a light to inform you that your seatbelt has locked instead of the old fashioned way of listening for the click and even if you cant hear you have arms to check its locked into place.

I've read the headline and thought maybe they have the engineering, R&D and manpower to "reinvent" the seat belt in a way which benefits the drivers and passengers.... what a clown company.

What an evitable, dumb, crappy and laughable bullshit invention. Apple, keep calm and carry on. Stop showing us how you are trying to be special and always failing to deliver. All your devices are overpriced products that are offered by other companies for less money and with even better quality.

JH, 21 Jun 2023It has been done before. But with Apple, people will think they invent everything, including ... moreYes, the illustration in the Artical is from a Skoda patent. But, most cars does have a indicator light in the isntrument cluster or dashboard, so this is redundant.

Hardly re-invention. Minor upgrade is what it is, and that Apple is patenting it is simply shameful.
Volvo didn't patent seat belts and the whole mankind greatly benefitted off of it.
But American companies have to patent everything for them greedy selves.
