The 15 Most Stolen Cars

8. Jeep Cherokee

Not all car thieves are clever. They may have training in shoving screwdrivers into holes, but they panic. After stealing a car, they react impulsively. That is why one car thief driving a stolen Jeep Cherokee accidentally hit a pedestrian. Not exactly smooth. On the other hand, some more sophisticated thieves can hack into the electronics of the vehicle and control it from a distance. That terrifying reality sounds like a plot to a science fiction narrative. Of course, this also raises serious questions about cars that are connected to the internet. If a computer can be hacked, why not a vehicle? If somebody can sign into your social networking account and post inflammatory spam comments, why should we be surprised that they can control your car? Perhaps corporations will start driving your car to their business to inspire you to make a purchase!
