Automatic Collision Notification
In case of either airbag deployme
nt or severe rear-end collision, the
system is designed to automatically call the response center. T he
responding agent receives the v ehicle’s location and attempts to
speak with the vehicl e occupants to assess the level of emergency.
If the occupants are unable to communicate, the agent automati-
cally treats the call as an emergency, contacts the nearest eme r-
gency services provider to descr ibe the situation, and requests that
assistance be sent to the location.
