[+] for the idea, but I'd go with something that's not on all the time. |

Just as many (if not most) newer cars are equipped with an audible back-up proximity sensor that beeps with increasing frequency as you near another object or obstacle, I have often wondered why a front-mounted proximity sensor isn't also standard equipment.

This would also be helpful for large parking lots when you can't tell how close you are to the car parked facing you, providing the car is the right height for the beams (I have a truck and have this problem when parking across from small cars). |
