Two men stood in front of the autonomous vehicle, operated by ride-hailing company Waymo, and literally tipped a fedora at her while she told them to move out of the way.

    Being able to completely immobilize a vehicle while keeping it intact is a criminal’s wet dream.

    It’s been a reality for over a decade.

    My point is that plugging in a charging cable is way down the list of attacker tools.

      Sure, but it’s on the list.

      If it saves even one human life it’s worth switching to an alarm instead of immobilization, even if that means hundreds of breakaway cables get snapped by morons driving away from chargers.

        What if hundreds of lives are lost due to broken cables snapped by morons driving away from chargers?

          How the fuck do you think gas pumps work?

          I’m done feeding the trolls.
