The Drive's own director of content Joel Feder was test driving a $155,000 Range Rover in suburban Minnesota when four cop cars boxed him and his wife in at a Kohl's parking lot with hands on their guns all because a data entry error in California created a partial plate match in Flock's AI system. This system ignored a "10" in the middle of his New Jersey manufacturer plate and flagged him as a stolen vehicle suspect, then tracked him for days across 18 cameras until he made a mistake and stopped somewhere without a garage. The genuinely alarming part isn't the single screwup. It's that Flock told him the system worked "correctly," four other cars were being tracked on the same bad data simultaneously, and the cop's advice to an innocent man afterward was "you're lucky you're in Plymouth, in Minneapolis they definitely would've come at you with guns drawn."
