With a lot of expertise computer hackers could gain remote access to someone's car. Just like they do to peoples computers. They can take over the basic functions including the control of its engine. Although no take overs have happened yet scientists conducted an experiment on a car they bought to hack. Their report said that it could happen. Because many of todays vehicles have wireless Bluetooth technology it is possible for a hacker to gain control of a vehicle. It can be hacked by making the car lock and brake and they could eavesdrop on its cabin and also steal vehicle data. They are now trying to found out how hard it is to do for a normal person. A lot of car safety issues are arousing lately and concerns of the internet comes in contact with almost every aspect in of daily life.
I think that this is really serious because stuff like this can get out and maybe people will start to actually hack the cars and this could cause many problems and crashes. This could also be a threat for things like kidnapping someone could hack another persons car and stop them and make them go another way and kidnap them. This could turn into a really big problem if it is possible to do for a normal man since these tests were done by very experienced scientists.
