Excerpt:
"Ford has filed a new patent called "Systems and Methods for Detecting Speeding Violations" that reveals the company is looking at ways to "automatically snitch" on speeding drivers, a new report from TechRadar shows.
Ford's patent filing with the USPTO details a system using vehicles' cameras and sensors to detect speeding motorists and report them to authorities.
Basic sketches and flow charts illustrate how this technology senses speed violations, activates cameras to capture images, and transmits data to nearby pursuit vehicles or logs it to a server. The captured data, including speed, GPS location, and clear imagery or video, can then be sent to authorities for potential action."

Had two Fords that developed a transmission problems. The second one was one too many.
My first Honda was an Accord that lasted 13 years without much of a bother before dashboard electronics shutdown prompted a decision to trade it in.
I'm now driving my second Honda hatchback after the first getting quite old one without much of a bother got totaled in an accident.
I made an appointment for some repair debugging on my car a month ago.
The competent shop is 60 miles away and that was the soonest they could take the car in.
A week before that appointment my clutch went out.
Likely master or slave issue which could be repaired in a couple hours.
I couldn't get an appointment locally for a week and I had the car towed there a day early.
Two full days later and they've done nothing whatsoever. No bays available.
(Huh? Why the F^&* did you say you could work on it then? Are you incompetent morons?)
So that easy repair will take another couple days and I've lost the appointment at the competent shop
to actually find the problem that the local guys are too incompetent to even figure out.
Now I get to wait another month for another appointment - and I can't drive the car for another month.
Competency on anything more than car washing and making french fries evaporated
when so-called [evil, white male] Boomers were forced out of their jobs for cheaper
[incompetent] youth [with Ivy League degrees in DEI.]
The silver lining (if you can call it that) is that I'm being prepared for typical
incompetence if I move to Latin America to escape the destruction of America.
Asia looks better every day.
they want you to buy a new one
- Horse drawn vehicles, horses and harness.
- Understanding of how to drive and to train a horse for driving.
- Ancient Dodge trucks that don't have any of that computer stuff.
However, we're getting old and will eventually have trouble taking care of our horses who are also old.
Any suggestions? Our heirs are not interested in horses at all.
My goal is a team of horses to farm 5-10 acres with.
As far as the Fords, we knew that this was just a matter of time, we gave 'them''' auto driving, GPS, etc. for convience.. Hell if you cannot drive by using a map, stay home.
They're pretty smart, and I almost think they could walk to Nebraska themselves if they could only read a map.
We use to have Saddlebreds. Brilliant driving horses, especially pair.
For you, get a pair (or maybe four) of stout Haflingers, or maybe a pair of mules. Check with your Amish neighbors no matter how far away they might be.
Beware using old harness. Inspect it in full sunlight. We bought some at night once, and the following day's sunshine revealed that all we had was quaint-looking wall decorations. We sold it all to a guy putting in a "Western-themed" restaurant.
