Well, owners will demand it because no-one will want their car to drive off and disappear and they don't know where it is. The question really is then how long before police forces lobby for access... Though indeed this may end up conditional on getting a warrant depending on the jurisdiction.

You can already buy a GPS tracker for your own car if you're worried about where it ends up. My guess that adoption of that technology is in the single digits. Not really seeing the demand for this.

Cars do not drive themselves yet... I'm really discussing that: full self-driving cars that can drive around with no-one inside.

When that becomes a reality I'm sure everyone will want a tracker.
