Terrible - With these types of "accidents", car, plane, suicides & heart attacks allows the real murder to get away with murder.

Maybe his best story is going to get published soon. The remote control mechanism (at them time) was a telemetry capable interface made by Bosch, yeah that research I did on that at the time (IIRC) the black box had interface / updatable telemetry that could monitor / update wirelessly any function of the automobile. Unfortunately it could be backed easily, YT vids at the time had folks unlocking and stealing the cars wirelessly. Those Bosch boxes are in most your buses as well,especially since the advent of "paperless logs" for drivers which count miles and hours ,on ,off with GPS overlay including start ,stop, throttle position, brake application,sensor in the driver seat tells if driver gets up, Every function.Considering that almost all vehicles now have " fly by wire" throttle control( no physical cable) mass transit buses are a very high risk for this.@ Least that was my research I had done then.very similar to the " uninterrupted auto pilot " on aircraft. JMHO nice post!

I remember the transmission, landed a long ways from the car, Mercedes people said that was basically impossible. Poor Hastings.
Now Brennan takes on even more significance, much more.

Also the car was taken over electronically something the C_A learned while working in Afghanistan. They took over the cars computer and floored it.

That was my first thought- too far unless it was blown out of the vehicle.
