We've built a surveillance state. Presumably that technology can be used to figure out who did this and catch them, without the danger. If not, why the fuck does it exist at all?
Also, now the car is totalled so I don't know what good that does for the person who owned it...
A recovered theft vehicle gets basically the same branded title as a totally wrecked vehicle in the States.
Even if this ended differently, the car would be impounded for at least a few days while the police search for drugs, weapons, other stolen items and conduct their investigation as to where/how it was stolen, where the thief drove it, what they did at those locations, etc. So the owner is still without a vehicle for a week, and when they do get it back it's worth significantly less with the newly branded title.
