Anti-snooze device
Have you ever slapped your face, turned up the radio, opened a window or sang out loud to try and stay awake while driving? The second leading cause of vehicle accidents in America is inattention due to drowsiness or fatigue. Eighty percent of accidents where vehicles went off the road were caused by sleepy drivers.
S.A.M. G-3â„¢ is a small, computerized, electronic device that monitors corrective movements of the steering wheel with a magnetic sensor. When normal corrective movements cease and lack of wheel movement is detected, you are alerted by an alarm which can be heard above radios and vehicle noise.
The alarm is automatically reset as soon as normal steering motion is restored. If the wheel of your vehicle is not moving normally S.A.M.G-3â„¢ will let you know so you can correct the problem by steering. S.A.M. G-3â„¢ helps the driver to monitor his or her own driving habits in real time when S.A.M. G-3â„¢ is activated.
Its computer chip technology is housed in a compact, high impact case
The manufacturer points to these features:
-Magnetic sensor monitors steering wheel motion
-Data logging (Available)
-High decibel warning alert - 104DB
-Cruise control shutdown with option relay
-Easy Installation
-Adjustable time delay alarm
-Heavy O.E.M. wiring and connections
