Headscratchers / The Fate of the Furious

• The EMP shuts down the entire base. So whilst you can forgive the minor thing of the barrios somehow magically being lowered (basic mechanics would have them lock in place once raised), how the heck was the submarine hacked? The entire point of the EMP is that it shuts down all electronics completely, hacking in from the outside shouldn't do a damn thing.
  • Movies sometimes show EMPs to be temporary, even though that's not how they work IRL. Or maybe the sub was shielded from the EMP or the EMP didn't have the range to disable the sub.
• How are there so many self driving cars in New York City? Even if you take into account that they aren't all self driving, but those cars that can park themselves (which on a side note, shouldn't be capable of getting over 10 mph), that is still way too many to be in one place. There is a period where about six all fall out of the same parking lot.
  • Because that way the movie has a cool action sequence.
• Right so one of the major themes of the franchise is that family is everything and as shown the crew is super close being able to tell when something is wrong or off about someone in the crew pretty quickly, why is it that nobody's first thought at all about Dom going rogue is that Cipher is holding something over him?
