Had a little road rage, got me thinking

Had a little incident today with some old man in a Buick. Lets just say he was one of those kind you see driving that shouldnt be. Has absolutley no idea of his surroundings and proceded to come on over into my lane. My front bumper was about where his rear door was. Luckily there was a clear median for me to go to.
Anyway, it got me thinking of my next mod. I am going to hook it up so I can remotely control it from inside.
Oohhhh man wouldnt this be nice.

There is a guy in our Turbine group who was in the Navy for quite awhile. His job there was signal jamming. He is one heck of a techie.

I asked him if it was possible with common Radio Shack components to build something that would disable another vehicle's ignition system while driving behind them, without affecting the vehicle it's mounted in.

Such a device is possible, as cop's have them some places in different forms, but very ILLEGAL for private citizens to own. In fact, it would land you square in the Fed's office.

Still, now that I know that this guy can build this thing, it's very hard not to try. I would love to be able to cut the engine out of the next joker that cuts me off and then slows down in front of me.

Road rage?? Oh, a tad sometimes.

Obviously they already have stuff like that on military vehicles (Army's stryker, and now HUMVEES) but I saw on the history channel once an GM quad cab with a shell. The shell had what looked like a moonroof. When the moonroof was retracted out popped a remote control 50cal. It was freaking sweet. It showed it driving along blazing away. Wish I would have paid more attention to the show.

AH, I need your buddies phone number. I would like a "doo-hickie" that will jam someones mobile while they are driving. Push a button and the signal is lost...they have to call back...push the button again and the signal is lost.

I'd actually have fun on my drive to and from work.

Ahhhhh... road rage... god help other drivers if I really get rich and don't have to worry about vehicles, insurance or my driving record. I'm gonna have lots of 'accidents' when that day comes...

"whoopsie, didn't mean to ram into you like that, my throttle was stuck"

"Opps, I thought the light was green and you already started to go before I floored it"

"Honestly, I saw a deer coming so I wailed on the brakes... too bad you were following so close and rammed into me"

"I thought I had a flat so I pulled over, I never saw you come barreling up on the shoulder to avoid the traffic jam... so sorry"

These people are driving...

Jesse just dosen't seem to care about the show or the projects anymore like he use too.
