One day everyone will have a mandated black box in their vehicles. The police will have access to kill switches and other monitors that will track every vehicle movement and the ability to turn off the car.
“One day everyone will have a mandated black box in their vehicles.”
One Day? OBD II is in all cars today. Through the auspices of “features” like On-Star (all GM vehicles), your car can be tracked. The feature that allows you to have your car unlocked means that they already have access to your car’s computer. Our two GM On-Star equipped vehicles get e-mailed “health reports” on a monthly basis. OBD III is coming, and with it, the ability to turn off your car is a fait complete.
BTW, both of our vehicles were built in a non-union plant in Monterrey, Mexico. That said, I expect to see you anti-GM “sheep” bleating about GM by return mail.
