Hack a 1%s car

A Tesla costs about the same as a Ford F-150 pickup. You want all those F150 drivers killed too?

I’d love to hack into all F-150s and remap the maximum throttle opening to maybe 1/2. Also set speed limits to 70 maybe. Or add GPS based limits to keep the fuckers from basically drag racing down my narrow sidewalk less street.

Actually doing Rams is probably best, and remapping diesels to prevent coal rolling would be high on the list too.

(the car could be any of the hundreds of digitalized luxury cars, or a Tesla, sure)
