> Also, unless there is data, I don't believe a company would disable a car in a manner that would be unsafe for anyone Looking past the fact that I already gave you one example, how would they know? The GPS device knows where the vehicle is, what it's running state is, and that's it. They don't know if the vehicle is stopped helping another person on the side of the highway. It doesn't know if the driver just ran inside to get their kid from daycare. It doesn't know if the owner is at a doctor's appointment 40 miles from home. And more to the point, it's not as if these solved a problem. Cars were repossessed aplenty before they were invented, the only difference is it used to be expensive, so a bank would work with the borrower to attempt to salvage the loan or at the very least, have to repossess the vehicle when the borrower was at home or at work. Now it's cheap to repo the car, so why bother? Why even notify the person other than with a text message, the Lender now has no reason to even attempt it, just repo the car, get it back on the lot and sell it to the next poor bastard who's desperate for a car.
