When only outlaws have faraday cages, the tin foil hat preppers will rule the world. Bwahaha!

Immobilize boats?
Good luck with that.

Yeah but a Coast Guard cutter can catch that. Those super fast cigarette boats running drugs are the hard ones to catch.

It sounds like they up-shifted at least 17 times. But my CVT scooter has no gear-song at all.

Hmm, I need to re-listen now that you pointed this out. Thanks!
I was imagining the scooter doing something maybe a bit lively, but yeah, it’s probably not going to win a hot race in a Ridley Scott film. Your scooter does look to be in mint shape though. Nice.
POVERTY FOR THE WIN! Yeah, I just checked replacement parts for my car’s ignition - I’d still be rollin’!
Postscript: ‘Red Fury’ was my ironic nick-named for car #2. It was an '83 Honda hatchback that could not be killed. I sometimes wonder in which western state it’s sitting up on blocks, getting re-habbed into a street racer. I had to rebuild the carburetor more than once, and I guarantee there are no electronics in it at all.

In that scenario police would be far better off with an international standard for remotely disabling a power vehicle. You could do it through the normal 4G interface (like the one Tesla use to upgrade their firmware). It would be a cloud service. Probably the local police get a vehicle ID from the registration, and a message goes to the manufacturer to send a disable message.
20 years hence, interfaces like that might be routinely used in traffic stops.

The Pentagon Is Making a Ray Gun to Stop Truck Attacks
No, they’re making a raygun to oppress people. If one of these is ever used to stop a vehicle attack, I’ll be amazed. Instead it just be misused in every way imaginable. It’ll only be a matter of time before police cruisers are outfitted with miniaturized versions.

I sure hope none of the bystanders / downrange non-targets have pacemakers.

Let’s see… range 50 meters, weighs 400 pounds, needs mobile 300kw power source… I think I’ll try my luck with a big NERF gun, thanks.

OH, I am glad you cleared this up. I assumed it was a euphemism.

A euphemism for a Plymouth Fury? …or a euphemism for a troll?
I tried to use this ‘Red Fury’ as my little icon, but it didn’t shrink well:
Hmph. More police vehicles with funny looking gadgets.

Submarines… how well does a HERF gun work through water?

My dad would probably know that lures name.
And now, I as going with a sexual euphemism… because the internet is mainly porn and warped my fragile little mind.
Good question, though in the past they would have to surface to fire a gun, before they got torpedoes working.
