Abstract: A facility for providing vehicle to vehicle event notification for connected and/or unconnected vehicles is disclosed. The facility enables a vehicle to detect an occurrence of a vehicle status trigger event and identify information describing an event type. The facility determines a priority of the vehicle status event based at least in part on the type of the vehicle status event. When the vehicle status event is to be reported to at least one other vehicle, the facility enables the vehicle to generate a vehicle status event message that includes the priority of the vehicle status event and at least a portion of the information describing the type of the vehicle status event. The vehicle status event message is then transmitted/broadcasted to at least one other vehicle.

Abstract: An apparatus for place-shifting telecommunication messages is presented. The apparatus includes a telecommunication service interface compatible with a telecommunication network that provides telecommunication service to the apparatus, and a network interface compatible with a data communication network that provides data connectivity between the apparatus and a remote user device. The apparatus also includes a data network conversion module and a telecom network conversion module. The data network conversion module is coupled between the telecommunication service interface and the network interface, and the telecom network conversion module is configured to convert local telecommunication signals received by the telecommunication service interface into a first format compatible with the data communication network.
