Hmm, my '84 944 has an old cell phone microphone on the upper left of the windshield, am I vunrable?

Kind of spooky...tho I'm sure cops would love being able to do this selectively...shut down a car.

Get this big brother scheme...there are those in Oregon who wish to install blow tubes in EVERY vehicle in the state. To start a car, blow into a tube...if alcohol detected, car won't start.

I'd say fine for those convicted of DUI...but ALL cars????

I thought someone had remotely shut down my 71 VW bus last week. It turned out to be the points though.
