I'm trying to figure out of this is just the distracted driving safety feature that's been on every car I've bought in the last 6 years. If so it can be disabled and really isn't that big of a deal when it's enabled. Just sends you an alert when it detects you weaving within the lane a little too much. I can't help but think this article might be a little sensationalistic.

    These things aren't going to just give you an alert. They're going to disable the car if it thinks you're impaired. The car manufacturers even warned the government about false positives that they can't prevent and Congress moved ahead anyway. https://startupfortune.com/your-2027-car-may-watch-your-eyes-and-decide-whether-you-are-fit-to-drive/
