Reddit user r/unclescorpion had no idea what was going to happen while on the phone with his wife a few days ago. She was driving and suddenly heard a scream before the call was suddenly cut off. Logically, this leaves anyone restless.
But what initially raised doubts became a certainty when a few seconds later a notification appeared on the user’s iPhone saying that an accident had been detected in his wife’s car.
A timely warning can work wonders
Reddit details what happened: the couple had an iPhone 14 capable of detecting traffic accidents, and one of the emergency contacts they had assigned in the event of an accident was logically her husband. This allowed him to come and even Arrive at the scene of the accident before the ambulance itself.
The hit was caused by a distraction from another driver, who entered an intersection out of turn and ended up crashing. Fortunately, the collision was not serious and the two involved in the accident are “recovering”. r/unclescorpion appreciates the notice he received on his iPhone, because if he hadn’t received it, “I would have been worried for a long time.”
This accident detection system may not be the best in cases like riding a roller coaster, but we have already checked in other cases how its usefulness has been demonstrated from the first days of its existence. And hopefully that will be the case for as long as possible.
