Hypothetically of course

Automated vehicles are full of cameras and other sensors, that would be something to keep in mind in this hypothetical.

In reality the actual thing stopping this is social convention. Police barely want to do stuff if actually valuable stuff is stolen, and can barely catch a thief if the thief left his passport, current address and his phone number behind.

In cyberpunk, vending machines have lethal security features and facial recognition preventing exactly this. That’s halfway real already.
Presumably they have cameras on board.
