Technology changes the way we interact with cars in a way we didn’t think possible a decade ago. Nowadays many cars allow remote access of some of their functions via a smartphone – which is a good and convenient thing most of the time.

BMW’s ConnectedDrive technology is a good example of the interactive experience drivers now get from their cars. The carmaker offers a series of services and apps that certainly make life easier for drivers, as it demonstrated in a recent video. However, BMW says that how drivers use these apps is up to them.

A rather mischievous use can be seen in a new BMW commercial called “Happy End”, where a father uses his remote-controlled 7-Series to make sure his daughter doesn’t “cross the line” with her boyfriend. You can find out who had the last laugh by watching the video posted below.
