I don't know the details on how it works, but it seems to me that a
broadening of something akin to the On-Star technology might be a
solution work examining. I do not know if an On-Star operator can talk
to an equipped vehicle at On-Stars initiative, but certainly we have
the start of a system with a two-way radio with a satellite comms
link.

Why not -- they can eavesdrop on a selected vehicle, as was
proven once when the cops asked them to do so to a vehicle involved in
a kidnap.

And now thwt I think of it, they can iniiate a conversation
when they detect an airbag deployment.
