It's a matter of time before that is legislated away as an option. Drunk driver detection and remote disable for law enforcement and other rights-trampling "safety" features will be always-on, probably by law. If it's not those, always-on comms will be mandated to help go to a self-driving fleet. One way or another, they'll force us to have spyware cars.
yeah i've always thought self driving and autonomous car fleets would be a godsend to governments. One order and you can immobilize a street, neighborhood, city or whatever. I bet it's hard to escape oppression on foot.
Imagine it has the same functionality as Bait car.. and not allow the occupants to exit the car either.
Oh, and no more pulling people over when you can just make the car drive itself to the police!
Stop buying new cars, fix old ones instead. If they start preventing that too, I hope there's a mass revolt.
