Global Positioning Satellites are used to deliver location information
(only at the request of the vehicle occupants or in the event an airbag
deploys) and may not be available if signal is obstructed. (If a signal is
unavailable, the last valid position obtained before the signal was
obstructed will be sent.)
Vehicle Communication System is powered by the vehicle's battery and
will not operate if the battery is discharged or disconnected.
Vehicle Communication System specialist will make all reasonable efforts
to contact the Public Safety service providers but cannot be held
responsible for their response time or their activities.
Drivers have the responsibility to pay primary attention to the road and
drive safely. A driver may want to pull over to a safe parking spot before
using Vehicle Communication System services. Drivers who allow
themselves to become distracted may cause an accident. Please use this
technology responsibly.

Reasons given... Consider...
ªI have an air bagº Air bags offer greater protection when
used with safety belts. Frontal airbags
are not designed to inflate in rear and
side crashes or rollovers.
ªI'd rather be thrown clearº Not a good idea.Peoplewho are
ejected are 40 times more likely
to DIE.Safety belts help prevent
ejection, WE CAN'T ªPICK OUR
CRASHº.
