A little-noticed federal mandate could take control of your car in the name of safety — and lawmakers in both parties have declined to block it.
The federal government is moving closer to giving your car the authority to decide whether you are allowed to drive — without a warrant, without due process, and with no guaranteed way to reverse the decision once it is made.
And it is happening not because of one party alone, but because Congress, across party lines, has failed to stop it.
This is not about defending drunk driving. It is about stopping a government overreach that treats every driver as a suspect.
No accident
It’s no accident that all this happened quietly. It was written into law under the Biden administration’s 2021 Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, buried deep in Section 24220 — a provision few lawmakers publicly debated, but one that now threatens to fundamentally alter the relationship between Americans and their vehicles.
Section 24220 directs the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to mandate “advanced drunk and impaired driving prevention technology” in all new passenger vehicles. In plain terms, it requires systems that continuously monitor drivers and can prevent a vehicle from operating if impairment is suspected. No breath test is required. No police officer is involved. The judgment is made by software.
More Big Brother !!!
Scenario- woman fleeing from abusive husband in a car and has to drive erratically-government stops the car-husband kills her. Or how about swerving on the road to miss deer? oops! stop that car! You really want to save lives? Ditch the kill switch and have some type of alcohol sensor to stop drunk driving-DUI’s are the ONLY 100% preventable crime-that could save tens of thousands from death and injury a year.
it’s all about control! you will own nothing and be happy or we’ll euthanize you since you are despondent! keep voting for these luciferian politicians! FOOLS!
Now, if only we could deploy a similar prevention technology before allowing people to have children.
