Summary
Cameron Gulbransen Kids and Cars Safety Act of 2005 - Directs the Secretary of Transportation to issue regulations for all light passenger vehicles to: (1) require that power windows and panels automatically reverse direction when they detect an obstruction to prevent children from being trapped, injured, or killed; (2) require a system of driver notification or a reminder system once the ignition switch is in the off position if passengers remain in any of the rear seating positions of the vehicle; and (3) require a rearward visibility performance standard to prevent backing incidents. Requires the Secretary to: (1) establish a database of, and collect data on, injuries and deaths in nontraffic, noncrash events involving motor vehicles; and (2) either supplement a consumer information program on child safety or create a new program with information about hazards to children in nontraffic, noncrash incident situations.
