> [@JayS](#): > > You could ya know, not run from the cops. I think his point is still valid. Just because an officer has this device, doesn’t mean they will ONLY use when absolutely necessary. Aside from that, I’m curious as to how focused this thing can get. I hope they aren’t just blasting EMP signals in a wide area so that every car in front of it would shut down. Using EMP on something isn’t typically just shutting it down, it’s destroying the electronics. Not saying that this particular device is doing that, but I’d certainly like to know more details. ---

Using EMP on something isn’t typically just shutting it down, it’s destroying the electronics. Not saying that this particular device is doing that, but I’d certainly like to know more details. Exactly my thoughts… this is destruction of property right there… and not just tires/rims (spike strips) that are easy to replace. With the amount of electronics in a car now a days, this will essentially scrap the entire car. EMPs don’t just shut things off… they vaporize the gold wires that connect the silicone microchips to the circuit boards and vaporize the structure of the silicone microchips themselves. ---

Yep, it will get used and people will cry about how they shouldn’t have used it. Meanwhile the 99.9999 % of the population that obey the laws or simply pull over like they’re supposed to during a traffic stop will never experience an EMP stop, getting tased or getting shot by police. ---
