Abstract
A method of determining a critical vehicle event. The method includes receiving vehicle speed data and airbag status data at a remote server. The method further includes deriving, at the remote server, a vehicle deceleration from the vehicle speed data. The airbag status data is analyzed at the remote server to determine whether an airbag on the vehicle has deployed, wherein the analyzing of the airbag status data occurs when a magnitude of the derived vehicle deceleration is above a preset magnitude. The method additionally comprises generating a critical event confirmation signal when the airbag status data reveals deployment of the airbag on the vehicle.
