I've been working on an idea for a while, autonomous police cars. They'll spot a criminal, pick them up and drive them to jail. It could save billions!

Sounds like my stupid (brilliant?) idea, an autonomous car lift. Travel under/around speeding or otherwise criminal drivers, travel at the same speed and pick the vehicle up (from the frame, not the wheels).

"10:01 AM", by Alexander Malec, 1966. Same idea, but for flying cars.

Reckless driver kills child pedestrian. Gets caught, grabbed in air by large police vehicle. Driver has disabled vehicle recorder. Backup vehicle recorder hidden in lug nut is played back.

"At 11 am, James 'Poxie' Smith was vaporized."

Crush the car.

I have this idea of making a human cyborg to cruise with the police car. We will call him CopRobot.

Why didn't you just call him RoboTop? /s

Autonomous sex worker robots. They'll spot a horny male or female, pick them up and service them. It could save billions!

[exabrial]

ah, self driving cars posing as uber rides?
