Shutting down automatically while driving would not be good.  Just lower all 
the windows automatically.

Hi Bob- do you know what percentage of the 300 are accidental vs intentional?

Maybe instead of just alerting, the car should shut down upon reaching some 
measured CO limit.

In the US we sell about 15 million cars/yr and have about 300 deaths/yr from 
automotive carbon monoxide. Since DC power is available, the horn is available, 
packaging is not needed, installation can be integrated in the auto 
manufacturing, I estimate an auto CO detector would cost below $10/car, about 
what a household one does.

It would cost $500,000/death to install CO detectors in cars. Is this a 
reasonable expenditure to mandate?
