It was most likely in the specs from the beginning. You can't have busses roaming around with no way to turn them off remotely.

#15I do worry if they are adding this to buses what are they doing to MacBooks and your phone? Do people here think these devices are compromised or should we take Apple’s word for it!?

#16This is just stupid. All modern vehicles har been fully remote controllable for years.
Every road vehicle sold today has a sim card, most for diagnostics, some for remote control.

For obvious reasons, non-CBTC trains are not remotely controllable (CBTC essentially means "remotely driven"). It's all or nothing; either a safety system that inherently accepts the risk, or no way to remotely control the speed, short of fully stopping the train.
If modern cars have been fully remotely controllable for years, why can't police stop often-deadly car chases?
Ditto on air traffic control and small planes; many don't even have in-plane automatic pilots. AFAIK no ultralights ever do.
Most boats are not remotely controllable; even the large container ship that recently damaged a major US bridge didn't.
