If you are driving nearly any vehicle made in 2010 or newer... they can remotely shut it off without your permission, and track you by GPS any time they want.
Why don't they do this during car chases on the cop shows on TV or You-tube?
Because they don't want their capability known at this point.
I'm a retired cop and we did stop cars remotely. Dispatch had a private number to General Motors "On Star" and Mercedes Benz vehicles. Tesla and the EV's are a whole new ballgame.
Do you really want to drive a vehicle your government can turn off remotely without your permission?
