I got this from one of the guys on the M-Riders Forum:

Oh Boy!!!!   I can hardly wait for Big Daddy Govt to take control of my vehicle. Will they retrofit all the old stuff on the road???  What's next?  Someone telling us when we can take a crap or not?

I do believe that's in the works.  I saw something about poop requirements in the latest issue of "The Toilet Times", a publication of the #2 industry.  Seems like they've got a good bunch of ex-congressmen on the payroll, and those are taking big money to spread the word about excrement exigencies.

And the scenario they use of vehicles realizing another approaching car will run a red light and slam on the brakes to protect you.

My guess is Hackers will figure out how to spoof that and cause all the cars in an intersection to lock up the brakes on command by convincing them they are about to have a collision in about 3, 2, 1 ....

what could possibly go wrong?
