I can how this can be used against you the driver nine ways to Sunday.
Way number 1... You get in an accident that any officer arriving at the scene can quickly determine is not your fault. The Insurer of the person who hit you obtains the OnStar data on your driving habits and everything you did leading up to the accident including your speed, and overturns the officers ruling in court and now you share the fault.

Works the other way too, of course. You could get vindicated by the electronics when the officer decides it's your fault.
Not that I'm supporting this. The owner should make an informed decision to opt in, not have a decision without his input made by some corporate bureaucrat.
