This might actually happen someday. Imagine: self-driving cars are the norm, car ownership is a thing of the past, you just hail an automatic cab and pay per ride.

this is like preventing your car from driving you to the bank so you cant rob it

I think the point was that they wouldn’t be able to go for non-robbing purposes, like opening an account for their daughter or whatever.
