Why would this be a thing?  Who would think this is a good feature?

My guess is that Ford figures future governments will force this type of snitch techology( in the name of safety of course )to be used. Now they'll make money as other manufactures are forced to pay a licence fee.

FTA

A Ford spokesperson told Motor Authority, "The patent explicitly states this idea is specific for application in law enforcement vehicles, such as the Ford Police Interceptor, and it's a system that would automate a capability that law enforcement already have in use today, except this would utilize the built-in system and sensors in the vehicle. This patent does not state that driving data from customers' vehicles would be shared with law enforcement, which is what some media have incorrectly reported. "

 

And the ATF can't have a gun registry.
