If you think about it.

At any point in time, humanity has the capacity to fire a missile from one side of the planet and hit someone's window on the other side. We can fire one bullet and hit a target 3/4 mile away. We can shoot down a satellite from a ship in the ocean.

We can blow up meteors in space.


And yet, it takes 2 hours to stop a woman driving a UHAUL in LA.

I don't think it would be unwise to use technologies like "missile lock" to deter UHAUL thieving criminals.
