The present invention relates to a biometric steering wheel including biometric sensors for scanning biometrics of a user and a display screen for displaying biometric authentication status. The invention also discloses a biometric based anti-theft and anti-carjacking system for a vehicle using the biometric steering wheel. An on-board controller is coupled to an ECU of the vehicle and is configured to enable the ignition and gear system of the vehicle upon a successful biometric authentication and to disable the ignition and gear system of the vehicle upon an unsuccessful biometric authentication. The on-board controller stores registered biometrics for comparison that are used for authentication of the present biometrics. The steering wheel can be configured to use and ‘read’ fingerprints, retinas, DNA samples, and/or face recognition as a biometric.
