A search and rescue system including a first control module for a first vehicle. The first control module is configured to identify when the first vehicle is in a distressed situation based on inputs received from a vehicle status sensor, and generate an emergency message including information regarding the distressed situation. A first transmitter for the first vehicle transmits the emergency message by way of a first antenna. A second control module for a second vehicle receives the emergency message by way of a second receiver for the second vehicle. The second control module relays the emergency message to at least one of a third vehicle and road-side equipment. From the at least one of the third vehicle and road-side equipment the emergency message is relayed to an emergency assistance entity.
