Hackable? How about the NSA spying? If the car is connected to his cell phone, then it would have been tracked just like any other cell phone. Could someone have used the same type of hacking that was found on Sharyl Attkisson's computer to take over control of the car's computers?

Anything is possible these days, even the NSA possibly getting involved in "wet work". However, there have certainly been some stories in the past few years about the security problems found in cars with OBD-II computer controls.

Here's one: http://www.caranddriver.com/features/can-your-car-be-hacked-feature

In some of the other stories on this, chase vehicles were used to take over critical systems (throttle, brake, etc.) When you factor in the resources that the government has (such as full access to the OBD system code), the possibilities get very ugly.

I think I'll hang on to my '64 pickup.

boxlunch ~:” Didn’t the coroner who did the autopsy on Breitbart also die mysteriously during the time he was investigating? Am I remembering that correctly ? “

BINGO ! ..INTERESTING !
Nope , there were TWO MYSTERIOUS DEATHS in the Coroner office ~ depends on how much credence you have in wmd.com .

Los Angeles Chief Coroner Investigator Craig Harvey revealed his official cause of death to Breitbart.com: as predicted, he died due to heart failure.

# 1) Veteran Los Angeles coroner forensic technican Michael Cormier had died, apparently due to arsenic poisoning.
The 61 year old Cormier was discovered dead on April 20th - the same day the city officials had released their preliminary autopsy report on the death of conservative media powerhouse Andrew Breitbart.

#2a )Now, the only witness to see him die, Christopher Lassete, is missing.

#2b)On the day the Los Angeles County coroner released Breitbart’s autopsy report, a photographic technician at the coroner’s office died suddenly of suspicious causes.

That's what I thought. We'll never know what he died from.

Here’s an interview with eyewitness..saw one done with him at crash scene but he doesn’t speak English fluently so this one is done with a translator. It seems there were sparks around the gas tank or undercarriage even before he went through the red light.

Our friend picked us up at LAX this morning, and we were talking about that accident... she lives very close to that corner. she said the engine landed all the way down the street from the car... very high speed.

She also said it was a huge scene... lots of local and other police, plus the FBI. I found it odd that the FBI would show up for what should be a "typical" late night car accident.

“...and was going to “go off the radar for a bit.”

He’s way the hell off the RADAR now...

Cementjungle ~:” She also said it was a huge scene... lots of local and other police, plus the FBI. I found it odd that the FBI would show up for what should be a “typical” late night car accident.”

I didn’t know that the FBI investigated autombile accidents ?
And the FBI are ‘country cousins’ to the CIA !
They are all under the aegis of the Dept. of “Just-US” !!
Since the FBI are implicated by the Hastings email text , I would suggest an independent investigation !!

If it looks like it,
Smells like it,
amd draws flys ,
You have reason to beleive that its*it (phoneticly) !

“He’s certainly off the radar now.”

I should read all the replies before I bother to post.

Driving too fast is not, as you say, a simple logical explanation. It might be for a 20 year old kid but this guy was an adult and a serious, accomplished writer who was working on a big story and concerned about his well-being.

If it was NOT the FBI but someone posing as the FBI who were looking and questioning before the accident they certainly better be investigating now!

2. Someone hacked into his car's control computers and forced his car to accelerate and swerve into a tree.

If we're not there yet - we're very close.

We don’t know for certain till the autopsy. Police are assuming its him because its his car. The car could have been stolen. Joy Ride would have explained the speed.

He says in video that there were sparks flying from beneath the car as he went down road. He didn’t accelerate until after running the red light

Well , that’s two major stories which would have impacted the administration/ regieme that were mysteriously “killed” under suspicious circumstances :
#1)Brietbart’s big story after going to Ayers residence for dinner ~ heart attack
#2) Hastings story on David Petraeus ‘early retirement’ from the CIA (spook city) ~ auto accident

In these two instances , the only agency who could effectively pull all the strings is the NSA , whom we are only just learning about.
Is Diane Fienstein really capable of over-seeing the watchers ?
or more symbolicly : who in their right mind would put “ Marshmellow Fluff” on a Reuben sandwich ?
My question is : Who is watching the watchers ?
