A “Roller Coaster” Mode Might Be Handy For iPhone 14 To Avoid Calling 911

The New iPhone 14/14 Pro and Apple Watches built-in car crash detection feature is now giving false positives for a roller coaster ride. It is definetly a very useful feature, but very sensitive too.

It happened to a family at Kings Island, an amusement park in Ohio. The iPhone 14 Pro dispatched emergency services when the device sensed Sara White, suddenly stopped after flying through the air at 50 miles per hour on the Mystic Timbers rollercoaster. When the ride was over, White faced a lock screen populated with notifications indicating her phone had called for help.

Sounds funny but I guess a “roller coaster” mode in the feature would really be very useful.
