And it will be only months before there are tools to reprogram your car to delete these functions just like I deleted start-stop in one of my vehicles.
But Mr. Griffin, we can’t install software that will disable the car, lock the doors and call the police if the driver has much darker skin than you.
Anyone check the date on this story? I will bet it was yesterday.
Federal government exempt.
Or, most states could remove those caught driving drunk from the highways. Instead we have people with multiple drunk driving charges still legally driving. Absurd.
“so why not just ban motor vehicles altogether if safety is the goal?”
You can take the bus.
Equality can get out of hand, comrade.
Some donkeys are more equal than others.
Drive on, chauffer.
Not my ‘68 Dodge Power Wagon.
The only electronic thing in that truck is a set of alternator diodes, of which I keep spares.
This isn’t a new law. The 2021 Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (Section 24220) requires all new passenger vehicles to include “advanced impaired driving prevention technology”. IOW, it’s been in place for ove five years.
Glad I just purchased a 2015 vehicle which I plan to drive for the next ten years. My other vehicle is a golf cart.
They already can track some vehicles passing by the sensors.
Useful for blackmail. Probably explains a lot of judges’ and Congressional decisions that seem weird to us.
Movie Murder By Death:
Peter Falk to David Niven: “You high class rich guys. Have you ever had an affair with a fat, blonde waitress you met in a cheap restaurant?”
“No.”
“You guys don’t know what you’re missing.”
I just got done watching ‘The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist’ Typical Liberal thinking. ‘Everybody needs to come together!’. Apparently the producers don’t know how regulation actually works . Their are two limiting factors on A.I. The first is semiconductor production. It takes billions of dollars to build factories . It takes months to actually make a chip and at least twice as long to make the factories which make them. The second limit is electricity. A.I..needs lost of power to work. Without that it does not happen. I find it had to be worried about something going out of control when it takes so much work just to make it happen.
Opaque tape.
I’m getting FSD so I can keep drinking until last call.
Drunks will just stop buying new cars, except Tiger Woods.
ANOTHER REASON TO KEEP MY “OLD IRON”.
I got skills I m going to hack the $$$hit out of my next car.
My wife and I will stick with our mint condition 2005 Ford 500...
Been happy with it for 21 years...
Bigger and more comfortable than any new car...
Perfect for a couple of old folks...
Paw told me three things, statements you could call them, way back in the 70's that I can still hear him saying in my head now:
1. Americans will never give up their big cars
2. Manufacturers will make it so you can no longer work on your own car
3. One day your car will tell on you.
He was right on all three.
