I have a BMW motorcycle (2015 R1200GS Adventure) with a Garmin Nav 5 GPS unit that has telemetry into the motorcycle’s computer. With the wireless and Bluetooth abilities I can imagine it might, maybe, be possible for someone to take control of the bike’s engine and brakes if that telemetry interface does more than download information to the GPS. *spooky* great, I think I just scared myself.

My view is that this is probably number 1,432,856 on the list of things to worry about.

But it’s nice to see Progressive getting trashed, that was really my motivation for posting this.
