First Claim
1. An automatic crash notification system for automatically providing notice of a crash of a transportation system comprising:
- a crash detection system located at the transportation system configured to detect the crash of the transportation system;
a memory system located at the transportation system containing a first prerecorded message that includes one or more words that mean that a remote location has received notice of a crash;
a wireless communication system located at the transportation system configured to wirelessly transmit a message to and wirelessly receive a message from a remote location;
a user communication system located at the transportation system configured to deliver words to an occupant of the transportation system; and
a processing system located at the transportation system configured to;
transmit notice of a crash over the wireless user communication system to a remote location in response to detection of the crash by the crash detection system; and
cause the first prerecorded message located at the transportation system to be communicated over the user communication system in response to receipt by the wireless communication system of an acknowledgement from the remote location that the remote location has received notice of the crash but which does not include the prerecorded message.

Abstract
An automatic crash notification system may include a crash detection system configured to detect a crash of the vehicle, a memory system containing a first prerecorded message that includes one or more words that mean that a remote location has received notice of a crash, a wireless communication system configured to wirelessly transmit a message to and wirelessly receive a message from a remote location, a user communication system configured to deliver words to an occupant of the vehicle, and a processing system. The processing system may be configured to transmit notice of a crash over the wireless communication system to a remote location in response to detection of the crash by the crash detection system, and cause the first prerecorded message to be communicated over the user communication system in response to receipt by the wireless communication system of an acknowledgement from the remote location that the remote location has received notice of the crash.
