This might explain why BMW is so steadfast in its decision to implement motion sensors on most of its vehicles.

Here, we all thought the motion detectors served as a way to deter theft. Instead, the real reason behind the motion detectors is to prevent the very situation that the we have here, namely, the horrible death of a 14 year old that got caught in the BMW central locking system.
