I'm no fan of OnStar or forced subs. But can Car Play call 911 or the police if you are unconscious after a crash? Or prevent your car from being driven if you report it as stolen?

Crash detection isn't a thing in phones generally, but it's worth noting that all cellular devices, regardless of subscription/service status, can call 911 (even without a sim card). You don't need some subscription payment to do that.

- hbossy 4y agoHow many roads with no passersby still have cell coverage? How many of them allow for speeds great enough to knock you unconscious on impact?
