On the subject of sensors in vehicles... (Score 1)

If we really really need sensors in vehicles to call emergency services to help public safety, why don't we have sensors installed that detect vehicle damage at a certain point, and then notify the police and possibly medical services that I have had an accident and need assistance sent? Set up the sensors so that it doesn't happen if someone backs into me in a parking lot, but if I run off the road and completely crumple the front of my car, then my car notifies the police that I need help!
