“The FBI’s thoughts on self-driving cars are two-fold: Driverless cars could make surveillance easier and more effective, but they could become lethal weapons in the wrong hands. In an internal report from its strategic issues group, the FBI touches on a range of risks, among them the threat the vehicles could be turned into driverless car bombs. The agency also said ‘bad actors’ could override safety features in the cars or ‘conduct tasks that require use of both hands or taking one’s eyes off the road which would be impossible today,’ according to VentureBeat. The agency is upbeat regarding surveillance possibilities afforded by driverless cars.”
