You never forget anything right? I guess I'm the only one who forgets anything ever? It's a safety measure... safety measures are "just in case" kinda things... such as just in case you FORGET to lock the car, an alarm is still on your side.
Despite having a downside, I absolutely don't understand how you can't see an upside to this. Especially because it already exists in other cars and is a feature in many alarm systems including
aftermarket.
quickie search result... why active and not passive for bmw? Passive is considered a better safety measure as evidenced by insurance discounts.
More. Oh wait, I already claimed passive was better in my very first post!
I'm done trying to convince people at this point by saying the same thing over and over. What I do want is for the company to consider giving us the choice for passive or hear why they didn't put it in in the first place.
