These are skynet cars.

I was thinking the other day that Google is Skynet. Google Glass and now these cars. They'll be spying on us constantly.

Its way worse than that.

Google is definitely Skynet.

When I first saw these, the first thing I thought was what would be the best way to destroy one. You can't tip them over, but the engine is exposed, so it would probably be taken out with a rifle round or two. The final versions will probably have some type of armor plating though. I hate to see how advanced they'll be in ten years.

I'd imagine a strong magnetic field above it would do the job.
Or just an EMP.

Yea, that's a smart idea. Then you fry your electronics too. Or you could just shoot it.

Or you could just shoot it.

But if that thing can carry hundreds of pounds, what's to keep it from being built with very thick armor that's impenetrable to anything but anti-tank weapons?

Or you could just shoot it.

The NRA is defeated in 2019 and the Liberal Communist Fascist government deactivates all guns.

Or you could just shoot it.

You saying "just shoot it" is the equivalent of the Polish trying to run down German tanks with cavalry and spears.  It will be laughably ineffective.
