Also, in before the EPA to ban tunes that would turn off the ignition interlocks.
I know that would be very first task with a new car would be to seek a delete of that "feature" same as a cat piss delete on a diesel. |

This is just as fucking stupid as “smart guns” for all of the same reasons

I am 38 and have never had more than a sip of alcohol, ever.
I will not have this bullshit on any vehicle that I own. Period. It will be disabled, removed, rewired, bypassed, or whatever the minute I roll off the lot. Just like the fucking auto stop at the red light bullshit, GONE! |

Quoted: Carmichael became an advocate for victims and along with Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) pushed for federal legislation that would make alcohol detection systems mandatory in all vehicles. View Quote Fuck her and her nanny state bullshit. My sympathy for her ended the minute she advocated for my control. So much for presumed innocent. I vote for mandatory monthly blood, hair and urine tests to make sure no one is using illegal drugs. Maybe we should add in mandatory house searches every month in case anyone is hiding illegal guns or other merchandise. Fuck these "can't be too safe" pussies and the horse they rode in on. I hope they enjoy the police state they're bringing down on us and the inevitable gestapo it will create. |

there needs to be a constitutional amendment that personal property can be modified in any way by the owner, and that the government cannot require people to purchase equipment they don't want.
Of course, if that were the case they would just offer tax breaks to companies that put all that shit in the cars and make it next to impossible to remove it. |

MADD ( Mothers Against Drunk Driving) have pushed penalties too far.
I'm thinking of joining DAMM ( Drunks Against Mad Mothers) to push back |
|
Sigh...
You're not going to legislate morals, responsibility, or good judgment. All this does is fuck with people not doing anything wrong, and the drunks will just find a way around it. |

I'm 100% against drunk drivers and think they should be strung up.
But I am also 100% against the states mandating nanny rules for my own good. |

Quoted: I’m at the point where I think that what they’re really trying to do is make cars so expensive to buy and maintain that only the wealthiest can drive. You’ll own nothing and like it.

What a load of shit. I hope the family of the first person to freeze to death on the side of a mountain while camping because they couldn't warm up in their truck sues the hell out of the federal government.

Why do they stop with alcohol sensors. If we want to make the world safer, why not force fat liberal women to lose weight. Their obesity is overwhelming the medical system.

When I drive home with a fighter pilot's mask vented to the outside and gloves, is that going to be a red flag for the police?

Quoted: So if the driver has had a few, and the vehicle says they are good to go, are the manufacturers going to be liable when someone is killed? View Quote or when said system isnt 100% foolproof? (IE gets wired around by joe blow) OR the other side when someone with a medical issue / hypothermia cant start their car and freezes to death? |

I don't buy new cars, now that they are less than 50% USA made, fuck it. I'll drive the 3 vehicles until they won't move anymore and then I'll fucking walk.

What's going to keep me from getting blind drunk and taking off on my motorcycle (other than the fact that I don't drink)?
Maybe the long reign of motorcycling has to come to an end. For the good of our society. What keeps me from getting dazed and confused on pot needles, or loading up on opioids and then getting behind the wheel of a car? I think this is one of the reasons why so many people want self-driving cars. They want the freedom to be wasted and senseless. Or they want to lazily tweet and shitpost without having to stop and pay attention to their driving. Yeah, fuck the Government nannies, but fuck the majority of our fellow citizens who advocate for this shit. |

They should just cut to the chase and ban the ownership and operation of private vehicles.

Quoted: BOSTON (CBS) – Drunk driving kills more than 10,000 people every year in the United States. A new law aims to change that by requiring alcohol detection systems in cars to stop impaired drivers from getting behind the wheel. The new law applies to everyone, not just people with a history of drunk driving. Sarah Carmichael says a crash in February 2008 changed her life forever. She was stopped at a light in Framingham when she was hit by a drunk driver. “I was in a medically induced coma for about 10 days,” Carmichael said. “C1 and C2 vertebrae in my neck were fractured as well as the base of my skull, both sides of my collarbone, 11 of my ribs, my pelvis was shattered,” she told WBZ-TV’s I-Team. “Doctors prepared my family that I was not going to live.” Her recovery took years, and it wasn’t easy. “With my pelvis being shattered I had metal bars to stabilize it, had to use a walker to get around. I had to learn how to walk again, basically how do everything from sitting up in bed on my own to brushing my teeth,” she said. Carmichael became an advocate for victims and along with Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) pushed for federal legislation that would make alcohol detection systems mandatory in all vehicles. It happened on Tuesday when President Joe Biden signed the infrastructure bill that requires new cars have the systems installed as standard equipment. KEA Technologies in Marlboro is just one of several working on the advanced impaired driving technology. The Driver Alcohol Detection System for Safety (DADSS) program uses infrared sensors mounted on the dashboard and door that register a driver’s breath and touch sensors that capture blood alcohol levels in the skin and the results the company says only take a second. https://boston.cbslocal.com/2021/11/18/i-team-dui-alcohol-detection-system-infrastructure-bill/ View Quote 10,000 people will die this year alone because of accidental over doses of illegal drugs and abusing legal drugs. Where is the outrage over that ?? The democRATS outrage is phony. Absolutely phony. kwg |

Pretty soon they'll pass a law that all new vehicles have to be able to detect if you've been vaccinated for COVID or not. If they get away with this, they will just dream up even more.

Quoted: Give me A/C and cruise control, and that's good enough for me. I don't need power anything, I don't need auto dimming mirrors, heated seats, etc. It's all nice to have, but I would skip 87% of the new tech in cars if it would shave a few thousand off the price.

Drunk driving is a factor in 1/5 of all vehicle deaths.....the other 4 are from stupidity and incompetence.

I'd like to know if the manufacturer of the detection technology lobbied for this, like SawStop did with their product.
