OnStar Unintentionally Saves Some Lives

OnStar possibly saved some lives, but not because of what it is supposed to be used for!

Two Michigan men were pulled over by police after an OnStar operator notified 911 that the mirror-mounted button in the men’s Cadillac Escalade had been pushed several times without any feedback from the passengers. Apparently the owner of the Escalade, Gavin Grant, was too drunk to drive, so he gave the keys to his ?more sober? buddy Brent Farmer, who subsequently blew a .30 (over three times the legal limit) when the police breathalyzed him. When asked why these two geniuses kept pressing the OnStar help button, Farmer told the cops that they were ?just messing around.? This being Farmer’s third-offense drunken driving arrest, at least now he’ll have to keep his messin? to the bus or sidewalk for awhile.
