Abstract: A method of, and safety system usable in, responding to an unauthorized possession of a vehicle configured to transport at least one person, including the steps of: obtaining the vehicle with the safety system associated therewith, the safety system configured to at least one of: a) generate at least one form of detectable signal; b) generate an electronic signal; and c) generate at least one image of a person in/on the vehicle; and generating an input to cause the system to generate at least one of: i) the at least one form of detectable signal that can be sensed by persons in the vicinity of the vehicle; ii) the electronic signal; and iii) the at least one image of a person in/on the vehicle. The system is configured so that at least one of the at least one form of detectable signal, the electronic signal, and the at least one image is generated after a time delay following the generation of the input to the safety system.

Abstract: An apparatus and safety system usable in, responding to an unauthorized possession of a vehicle configured to transport at least one person, including a vehicle safety system associated therewith, the safety system including to at least one of: a) device to generate at least one form of detectable signal and; b) a device to generate an electronic signal; and c) an apparatus which generates an input to cause the system to generate at least one of: i) the at least one form of detectable audible signal that can be sensed by persons in the vicinity of the vehicle; ii) the electronic signal; and iii) the at least one image of a person in/on the vehicle. The system is configured so that at least one of the at least one form of detectable signal, the electronic signal, and the at least one image is generated after a time delay following the generation of the input to the safety system. The device to generate an electric signal and the system are protected in a protective case.

Abstract: A convertible clothing accessory configured to be worn by a user. The convertible clothing accessory includes a barrier, a plurality of strings coupled to the barrier such that the plurality of strings is configured to secure the barrier to the user, and an attachment means coupled to the barrier. The convertible clothing accessory is reconfigurable between a first configuration, where the barrier is adapted to be worn as a mask on a face of the user, and a second configuration, where the attachment means is arranged to removably attach the barrier to an article of clothing worn by the user, such that the barrier is adapted to be worn as a clothing accessory.
