Sammy has invented another: the “security rear megaphone”. A device made up of a megaphone (to be installed in the rear of the vehicle) connected to a safety distance control sensor. If the vehicle that follows us is not respecting the safety distance, the sensor activates the megaphone, so recording a voice begins to repeat: “You are too close! you’re too close!” with a growing volume as long as the distance between the two vehicles is not respected.

For those who have doubts, considering the title of this article, we clearly mean that we are not talking about a toy! The “rear megaphone” is not a toy but is really a safety device that motorists are obliged to install if they want to be in line with the law.

Obviously the device has received a lot of criticism and many negative reviews, but to try to understand how it is possible that such a sound system can be approved and installed in all means of transport, we start from the beginning of this story.

Newspapers with critical titles and negative reviews to the rear megaphone utility — Critics in the newspapers on the utility of the device.

The device has been on sale for more than a month, there are many cases of replacement due to a number of malfunctions, many motorists have woken up overnight because their car repeated, with the engine off: “you’re too close!”.

The fantasy of a child who creates toys not for children

The island is governed by Mr. John, who is also the owner of the country’s largest industry. His son, Sammy, has always had ideas – just like all the kids – but as long as these were leading to the creation of new toys in his “Designed by Sammy” line was not a problem.

At one point his father decided to give him a section of his company that has nothing to do with the toy line, but he only deals with producing all the ideas of the baby, useful and not useful, to put them on the market right away . Here’s how they can market this non-toy.

Imagine being able to accomplish everything that goes through your head, your most absurd ideas, starting with the idea that you are doing a toy and therefore with the same imagination as a child who does not think about adult rules. But what you will do will not end up in the toys department, but in the one dedicated to cars.
In short, a worthy story of our section dedicated to the technologies of other planets.

And that’s not all, it looks like the company has contacted the best Hollywood actors and has acquired the rights to extract some of the old movies most important rumors to let motorists customize the “you’re too close” voice transmitted by the megaphone.

Normal noise pollution wasn’t enough, but now the rear megaphones are also being added.

It remains to be said that, being compulsory, one has to get used to being scrambled in the street by a recorded voice; but if all this is inevitable, we want to be reproached by Dr. Frederick with the same ferocity he has in Young Frankenstein.
