West Michigan (US) here, Verizon has coverage everywhere, I could totally see somebody picking blueberries in a field, tripping and hitting their head.

At least around here cell reception != humans within earshot at all.

Also west michigan. You should treck upstate sometime. Cell coverage in the Manistee National Forest is terrible, doubly so during the winter months.

That said, this is a great feature for many people. I could see it being very beneficial to hunters, elderly people, and people who run in the woods.
