Imagine someone carjacks you and takes your Escalade on a joyride - only to end up smashing your gas guzzler into a wall during a high-speed chase with law enforcement.
In 2009, OnStar will have the capability of slowing your car down gradually from the comfort of a call center chair. Pretty awesome. Well...unless they accidentally slow the wrong car and you miss an important job interview or if George Bush just wants to know where you're eating for lunch.

Still cool though...
