Pontiac, before its demise had a pretty impressive array of steering wheel based controls. Now the fad is making things voice activated.

Wouldn’t it be nice if the government could shut down all private transportation whenever they want?
I’d feel so much safer!

“Picture a couple of cars boxing you in and forcing you to stop. A very convenient method to kidnap/harass/murder people.”
Automatic braking is being added to more new cars and will soon be mandatory. It requires no network to function.
Basically the computer always calculates your braking distance and will slam the brakes if radar detects something massive getting too close.

Would I be at risk of a swerving V2V vehicle while riding my non-V2V bicycle?
To: JJ_Folderol
Didn’t need the sarc tag! LOL!
Impossible to build a wall but government can mandate V2V. For our own good of course.
To: MulberryDraw
This will also be used by bad guys and Police alike in order to force other vehicles to stop.

The only electronic component in my Willys jeep is the aftermarket ignition module.
I have it where it will run on a new Weber 2 barrel finally.

Let me guess: this is just another way to get older, non-government-trackable, non-government-controllable vehicles off the roads.
So incredibly sick of this creeping Federal tyranny. And millions more are just as pissed off as me.

The people that work in parts places for the most part know only what the computer tells them.
I get a laugh sometimes when I get asked what I working on. 1965 tends to blow a few minds.

It will actually increase accidents. Aggressive drivers will change lanes at their whim, depending on the other car’s computer to back off to create space. The accordion effect will result in multi-car accidents.

The perfect crime, just waiting to be tapped (or hacked)!

Silly, serf. As if this would be mandated for the vehicles the rich and powerful have available. Don’t you know there will ALWAYS be exceptions?!

"1965"...
You, too? I'm restoring my 1965 Formula 'S' Barracuda -- that I ordered (and received) -- set up for rallying -- in February, 1965...

“bad guys and police”?
Heck, under Dear Leader’s martial law, the police will be the bad guys.
