I saw this in an old issue of Car Audio and Electronics, where they visited a shop that installed all these safety devices to get rid of followers, stalkers etc. They put in an extra fuel injector in the intake system, fueled with ATF. It was supposed to leave a very thick smoke screen behind your car, forcing the followers to stop and lose you.

Maybe nice to have to get rid of pesky highway patrols??
