What exactly would a self driving car have to do with this? This is talking about tracking by cell phone data and license plate, not car data. A self driving car would be the same as a regular car, just with extra sensors, the ones they have now are at least. Who is to say that it would have extra tracking?
Your car has a computer and needs to know both where it is precisely and if the roads have changed since it was last there. This is always on and possibly worse than a cellphone for tracking given how hard it would be to "throwaway".
