A vehicle having a system which includes at least one sensor contained therein. The systems utilizes conditional probability to determine if an occupant (i.e. child and/or animal) is in the vehicle in the absence of an adult. The system used conditional probability to predict the likelihood that a child and/or animal was left unsupervised within the vehicle. The system collects data from existing vehicle sensors (door sensor, weight sensor, seatbelt sensor, face detection sensor, input sensors or any other suitable sensor already imbedded within the hardware of the vehicle) and uses that data to assume if an adult, child and/or animal is present. A motion sensor and a temperature sensor (infrared camera) are further utilized to determine the presence of a child/animal and the temperature of a child. Input from the motion sensor and/or temperature sensor (infrared camera) are utilized to provide warnings or to take corrective measures.
