I can’t. I just can’t.

    Until we actually know what the implementation looks like you’re just talking out of your ass and have no right to be condescending.

    The entire story is that the NHTSA is obligated to make rules for the implementation of impairment detection. It absolutely does not follow that ‘obviously it won’t detect impairment’

        Can you explain how this tech that doesn’t exist will be used against you?

        This regulation, which doesn’t exist but was due to be implemented, is not meaningfully different than requiring a passive breathalyzer interlock.

          Ah yes, everyone else must live in a different reality that does not hold your wild takes.

            my wild take of ‘maybe get mad at stuff that is actually real instead of reading a clickbait headline that is already detached from reality and then going even further making up even more stuff that isnt real to scare yourself with’

              You see the issue is that you are doing the very thing that you think everyone else is doing here. This is a real issue around tech we own spying on us and the slide into a very bad place. Your the one making up a scenario in your head about tech making anything safer (car injuries and crashes per capita have not in fact gone down with new tech past the collapsing steering column), and then thinking that since 40,000 people die in vehicle crashes justifies anything. Here’s is a fun little stat: 12,000 us people die each year on stairs does that then mean we should make stairs have infotainment systems that block stairs if it thinks you are drunk or sleepy? I mean its all worth it right, even if all the data collected on those stairs is used to fuck the users of those stairs.

              For a better look here is an example:

              In 2008 12.32/100,000 people died in motor vehicles in the us

              In 2022 12.76/100,000 people died in motor vehicles in the us

              So that tech that spies on you did nothing?

              In 2008 5,811,000 reported crashes happened

              In 2022 5,930,496 reported crashes happened

              Looks like it did not do that much, but boooooooy howdy did the amount of crap in our cars increased from 2008 to 2022.
