The ever-increasing urge to
rush self-driving cars to the streets is also raising questions for
criminals. What will they use for getaway cars in the future? If they
believe that an autonomous car is like a well-trained dog – command and
they will come – not so fast.
While we are still years away from fully autonomous vehicles, technology experts are scrambling to dissect how these vehicles might be used in a manner not intended by manufacturers. How can hackers manipulate the vehicle’s brain and divert their original intentions?
The one thing that might make criminals shy away from autonomous vehicles is the mere fact that there are cameras installed in all these cars keeping an eye on passengers, with data being downloaded to the company’s server. It looks like gaspowered cars are still in their future. Happy Motoring.
