Guys I am new to this forum but I am looking for all of the help I can get. We have had issues where our drivers have to get out of the forklifts to check dock locks and other things prior to loading a trailer. One of our other locations had a driver get hit by another forklift while he was attempting to get back into his forklift. I had the thought of installing a short range transmitter on the seat switch to broadcast to a receiver that would just turn on a light or something to let forklift drivers know that there is someone out of the cab closeby. Would anyone have a clue on how to do something like this?

Thanks for any and all advice.

Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
