"A group of security researchers have found vulnerabilities in
internet-connected drive-through car washes that would let hackers
remotely hijack the systems to physically attack vehicles and their
occupants. The vulnerabilities would let an attacker open and close the
bay doors on a car wash to trap vehicles inside the chamber, or strike
them with the doors, damaging them and possibly injuring occupants."
