You start the engine, and drive away. The indicator on the dash keeps telling you to check the rear doors or seatbelts, the rear doors had not been opened and no one in in the seats that would be wearing a seatbelt. This stays on for at least 45 seconds to a minute while you take off. If you push the right button on the steering wheel, it turns off right away, but what has just taken place is you have been taught to ignore this issue in the back seat because it indicates a problem during the entire time you would really need to know about it if there was a problem. So, when it happens for real you have already ignored it because the stupid programing has taught you it was BS.
It will someday kill someone because of this.
Very poor engineering, like so many other things in this car.
