I think that OnStar thing is a great idea! I would like that in my car. Less chances of some douche wrecking it if they stole it!

I'm guessing once that comes into effect there will be alot less stolen escalades and other GM's on the reserve.

I'm pretty sure that they will leave that out of the escalades so that they can continue to be stolen by anyone that can reach the pedals.

Too much electronic crap. For me the ability for someone else to remotely monitor, or even control my car is too much. The technology has its place, just not in my car.

So maybe people will wear their seatbelts and do the speed limit! I still fail to see the downfall.... I do speed, and at times I don't wear my seatbelt, but if I knew for a fact I was going to get caught, I wouldn't do those things. If it was mandatory for everyone to go the speed limit, traffic would flow better, and if everyone had to wear a seatbelt, fewer deaths!

I remember in grade 11 auto the whole class made a big list of pros/cons, ima try and find that note and bring it up...overall sure its a great idea and a nice system to have but there were some downfalls about it as well.

No sure if anyone knows but what are the rules the police have to go by when in a pursuit?
When is it okay for them to put the bumper to someone, when do they have to call it off and is it okay to go after a driver? I've heard all kinds of things but I never hear the same thing more than once as far as what the cops can and can not do. |
