ABSTRACT:
A remote vehicle disabling and distress indicator system for a motor vehicle that is activated by an external telephone call or internally by one of two switches. The telephone call sends a signal received by a modular telephone stored in the vehicle that disables the vehicle by deactivating the ignition coil or substantially closing a fuel valve that controls fuel flow between the vehicle fuel tank and the vehicle engine. The signal also causes a distress sign at the top of the vehicle to be illuminated. In addition, the signal activates a tape machine that plays a prerecorded distress tape message through speakers that send a loud audible reproduction of the taped message internally and externally to the motor vehicle to attract the attention of any local population. The taped message may be any of a variety of messages, such as "HELP|", "CALL THE POLICE|", etc.
