We need to scrap the entire US government and start over.

“I dont want a chinese car because it would just spy on me”

It’s 1984 and no one cares

The day the vehicle I paid for doesn’t work because a goddamn sensor thinks I’m not fit to drive is the day I break my foot off in someone’s ass.

Fuck this dystopian shit show we’re creating for ourselves.

Vote better.

How about limiting the insanely bright headlights first?

Looks like I’ll need to start stockpiling old camrys and corollas in addition to hard drives, routers, motherboards, ram, dumb TVs, flip phones/whatever else they’re taking away this year.

As it references the NTSA I think that this is a USA only issue.

You’d think more libertarian types would be more in favor of walkable cities, biking, and such.

Chinese EVs it is, nonIronically safer and more trustworthy than American products

So… ICE will know both your location and face every time you get in your car? Yeah, I’m sure this won’t result in a genocide. ^/s

I can’t wait to have to buy active countermeasures for this shit. /s

So this works perfectly and has no bugs, right? There’s probably going to be millions of false positives everyday and people won’t be able to use their cars. Between this and AI age verification and everything else, the dumbass politicians in power seem to think all this shit is magical wizardry. Their going to cause society to collapse.

Bought a 2000 Honda Civic precisely because I don’t want to be spied upon.

Spank my ass cause everything else already does, so it makes my effort almost completely moot.

This is fucked. But aren’t “passenger vehicles” actually quite rare? I think most (environmental and safety) regulation is on passenger vehicles, which is why auto manufacturers try and sell so many trucks and SUVs since they don’t count as “passenger vehicles”. I could be wrong and this mandate is going to target all consumer vehicles.

Fuck all cars and our American car brained culture. But also fuck this legislation.

Lol pre 2027 cars will sell at a premium
