Okay, I'll buy that. How about just enough of a pulse to crash all those little computers that control useful things like fuel injection, etc.?

On an individual basis (run over the emitter lying on the road), it's easy.
On a mass basis: you're getting up to the intensities required to serious injuries to people at the maximum effective radius. And those closest to the emitter are going to get far more serious injury--again, you're talking flash-cooking (those closest to the emitter point would probably EXPLODE as the water in their bodies flashed to steam).
