It starts with you not paying your lender.
Then your insurance company pays them to see what kind of a driver you are,...speeding, not fully stopping at stop signs, not following traffic laws like aging boomers, and going to places the government does not want you to go. Next thing your license to drive is gone, you can't leave the country or your house without a police excort. China has shown Trudeau the way, and Trudeau has shown he will take your bank account and take you to court and fuck you any way he decides.
Of course, Cox and the rest of the idiots on this thread applaud this. For fuck's sake read some 1984 and some Orwell.
To avoid 'confrontation,' Ford applies for patent on self-repossessing vehicle technology
Story by Phoebe Wall Howard, Detroit Free Press • Yesterday 5:44 PM
DETROIT – Ford Motor Co. has applied for a patent on a system designed to try and get people to clear up late car payments that, when all else fails, could lead to cars driving themselves to repo lots.
A patent application from Ford Global Technologies was filed with the U.S. Trademark and Patent Office on Aug. 20, 2021, and formally published Feb. 23 for public review as part of the official process.
The patent is pending, not yet granted, Ford spokesman Wes Sherwood confirmed to the Detroit Free Press, part of the USA TODAY Network, on Wednesday.

The patent application describes new "systems and methods to repossess a vehicle." Inventors are listed as Anthony Maraldo, Brendan Diamond, Keith Weston and Michael Alan Mcnees, all Ford engineers.
They describe in the patent application a range of possibilities that include the car driving itself off private property to be picked up by a tow truck or taking it to a junkyard if the value is too low based on mileage and other factors. |
