Sorry, yes, the new mandated system is “passive”. It’s all contained within the car, works automatically, doesn’t require any outside commands, doesn’t require any specific actions by the driver.
The Onstar system requires a request from police. They request the shutdown/slowdown, presumably when the car is in a safe location.
