yesterday on a police chase livestream on YouTube the cops tried to shut down a car that was running from them by calling the company. They got a spike strip before they could get it worked out but even hearing that it's an option is absolutely dystopian here's the vod btw https://www.youtube.com/live/-d9lHib8FJM

So the car company takes ALL the responsibility for any accident. Let's see how that works out.

"If the AI determines you’re impaired (blood alcohol ≥0.08% or showing fatigue), it can prevent ignition startup or limit vehicle speed" So if I the driver is injured, or distraught over an injured passenger, the car will limit how fast they can get to a hospital? Reckon this needs a little more time in the thinking through phase of the process.

> The federal government promises this surveillance saves 9,000-10,000 lives annually. What happens when it doesn't. Is their a provision to end the program if it doesnt make certain targeted goals? No? Of course not! That would be data driven legislation.

Modern are having our right of repair taken away to not just spyware. 1998 Toyota Carola for the win, easy to fix, and no spyware, and just works.

Already exist in Australia and these systems are total garbage that keep warning non stop.
