Ford Patents System for Self-Repossessing Vehicles - Expert comments What Could Possibly Go Wrong?

Ford has patented a technology that enables self-repossessing vehicles, which can determine when a car loan is in default and autonomously drive itself to a safe location, according to the documents. BullWall co-founder Morten Gammelgaard warns, “This situation is fraught and in need of immediate legislative guardrails. Given the Equifax and Experian breaches and how many people suffer because of false reporting on their credit scores how is the public to have faith in such technologies? We do not want technology to make it easier to expose consumers falsely and unfortunately recent history has proven even large enterprises cannot be trusted to guard against such abuse.”
