A remotely operable vehicle disabling system for terminating operation of a vehicle. The system includes, first of all, a remotely operable command transmitter (12) for transmitting a command such as an infrared beam (14). Second, the system includes a command receiver (16) capable of responding to the command and physically situated at a site of the vehicle such that a command from the transmitter can reach the receiver (16). The receiver (16) is in communication with at least one operational component of the vehicle and capable of shutting down the component upon receipt of a command from the transmitter (12) to thereby terminate vehicle operation. Preferred operational components with which the receiver (16) can be in communication include a fuel flow termination device (26) and an electrical power termination device (22). Preferably, the receiver (16) is additionally in communication with a tamper-evident indicator (34) such as a light disposed at an external site of the vehicle to alert observers if an attempt has been made to tamper with an operational component. |
