If self-driving vehicles can be used for petty burglary, eventually it will also be used for more serious crimes like contract murder etc.
Actually there is no way to find who is inside the vehicle. If the criminal covers his face, his hands (no DNA, Fingerprint) and uses stolen info (phone number, credit card), police will have a very tough time with such crimes.
> the Waymo user’s account information didn’t lead police to the suspect. In general, he said, it’s not unusual for a criminal to order a service with stolen information or a burner phone.
Add »hacking the self-driving car« to the equation and you get the perfect classical-cyber hybrid crime. Afterwards, the poor waymo cannot remember what even has happened. That's spy film material :-D
