Well on the 'Bus the autocall is a couple of knots or so before V1, and it's NOTHING to do with incapacitation.... It's just that if you are length limited it stops you from over running if you start the abort at V1 - it takes a couple of seconds to even DECIDE to stop - by then you're V1 PLUS X kts and you're possibly stuffed...
