Re: Sad Hummer Story today in So Ca.
That is VERY scary. I have a 23 mo old also who has been opening doors since he was 14 mos old. With a new house that isn't 100% toddler proof, we've quickly learned that you can't take your eyes off them for one second- or "assume" that someone else is watching them. You have to be overprotective, or something like that could easily happen.
I agree on the SUV thing again, but I have to say that my H2 has some of the worst blind spots ever. And of course getting the lift didn't help.  Our dogs run loose on the property, and I usually can't see them. I just keep my fingers crossed that they're smart enough to get out of my way when I'm driving. With a kid under 3' high, yeah, there's no way I'd see him.

Sad. One reason I use a Hitchcam on my H3.

Re: Sad Hummer Story today in So Ca.
That just put a streak of pain through my chest. Very sad news. I've always had that fear when the boys are outside playing.

X2. ALthough some people think back up cams are a waist of money, it's a small price to pay considering what can happen.
VERY SAD!

Re: Sad Hummer Story today in So Ca.
Very sad indeed. I can't imagine my little girl being hurt. It breaks my heart to hear things like this. I am an ICU nurse and when we have kids that come in, it always reminds me that this too could happen to my daughter and my family. Guys, PLEASE take the extra min to review your surrondings and never leave without saying "I love you". .................................... Jamie

Re: Sad Hummer Story today in So Ca.
That's too bad. This is why those back up cameras come in handy I guess.
