You know the type. High security, weeks or months of stakeout, sniper three blocks away...

The hitman sorta things I recall from the news are either planned and executed by national intelligence agents or some savage gunning and running from hired brutes, but never the variant with sophistication and private sector.

I just read a story about a Tesla Model S that abruptly turned left into a median and accelerated straight into it, killing its occupant on impact.

    Most new vehicles could do that too. Most vehicles come with driver assistance that includes braking and accelerating. They almost always have a Bluetooth connection as well.
