vehicle, or if they are too
close or far from the vehicle
• children, pedestrians,
bicyclists, or pets.
If you do not use proper care
before and while backing; vehicle
damage, injury, or death could
occur. Even with URPA, always
check behind the vehicle before
backing up. While backing, be
sure to look for objects and check
the vehicle’s mirrors.
You think that is being said just for liability reasons?

If you guys think that's strange, check out these warnings on the top of my paper shredder...
Apparently I am not supposed to put certain things in in the shredder... such as hair, neckties,
babies, hands, etc...
So I think GM is just covering themselves in case of... odd incidents...?
