Hopefully they tested against pacemakers (Score 1)

What's the liklyhood of something like this taking out a pacemaker, or an implantable defibrillator? Worse than the case that the vehicle is uncontrollable because of power steering failure, they could be dealing with a vehicle out of control due to driver death. Or maybe it won't be the car they zap, but the cardiac patient in the car in front of, or beside it. Disabling moving vehicles in a fashion that compromises control as they slow seems like a Bad Idea. Using an energy weapon with the capacity to disable technology people rely on to sustain their lives just takes it one more step lower.
