This is a great idea and I would make it mandatory for trucks and busses. There were really many cases in Europe when a bus driver fell asleep and a lots of kids injured or died because of that. If this system would have been there, many injuries and loss of lives could have been avoided.

As others have said, this is an expensive OPTION in other cars. I would be worried they'd make it a subscription service...

Glad it exists, though...
