Breathalyzers in all new cars passed in infrastructure bill

That's exactly why you will be stopped by the police every time...
Good luck with the officer...

I wonder if this is for all electric cars too? They are pushing EVs and not putting in charging stations throughout the country so that people can't move around.

I bet this is just for gas cars.

they dont want you driving

That's why you're a loser...
you always make the wrong bets.

And pay by the mile tax

Also in the 2700 page draft is a proposal to tax Americans on auto mileage. You will report miles driven each year on tax form and eventually pay a tax on each mile driven.

Demmit.. little prick next-door already making 20-bux to cut the grass, 20-bux to baby-sit, 20-bux to take the garbage out, 20-bux to walk the dogs, 20-bux to shovel the driveway & now he gonn'a make another 20-bux every-time he starts my car.??

You’re not very smart. For instance, you blow in the device and you got even a tiny bit detected it alerts all police officers in your area and your location gps. You’re fucked because their devices are not accurate anyways even if you’re below.

And road rage

Follow the money...the company involved in serious lobbying for this inclusion is owned and operated by former federal employees. I kinda of doubt it will make it to the final bill as the car lobby is much stronger, and since it would add a minimum 900 dollars to the price of a new car, they would strongly oppose its inclusion. I guess we shall see

I believe this is already the case in France. Not that all domestic flights in France will be banned by 2030. Unless you have a private place, that is.

I also expect that car rental companies will eagerly hop on this band wagon quite happily. Transport and shipping companies, public transit, Ride Share, Car Share will likely follow suit. Especially companies that to do random drug testing.

Companies that have people operating heavy equipment...will totally do this to limit liability and hold off insurance increases for non compliance. Do you really want someone with a forklift, crane, digger drunk off their asses? Would u be upset if the Dr. performing open heart surgery just had a 4 martini lunch......?

Governments may mandate this for new/learning drivers as here in Ontario they must always have ZERO BAC.

The era of the presumption of innocence (sobriety) is GONE. Thereis no care or consideration if you inherently have a very very high tolerance for alcohol or none at all. The lowest common denominator will be used. Now .8 is the MAXIMUM in Ontario. They want to drop it to .5 or .4 as it is in many parts of the EU. That is about a 1/2 pint of beer for most men.

But not to worry.
Only self driving transports will be allowed in the near future and you will only go where you are "allowed" to go. Most machinery will be run by AI....as will most manufacturing and construction.

Alas, there really won't be many who can afford to buy/rent much of anything when everyone is out of work on basic income allowances. You can have your allotment of government cheese delivered by drone by Amazon or Walmart. Until you die or kill yourself or activate your "euthanasia app"

If there is a shred of decency they will legalize most drugs so you can stupefy yourself enough not to care about any of it while jacked into a VR.

Its really flawed

Because this…

I'll never buy a car with that crap in it. Or stick it on the exhaust pipe.

Not a chance canuck

Cars do have those..

A fully sober Chinese woman behind the wheel is equivalent to a DUI.

You gotta blow into it to start the car even if you haven’t been drinking? How’s it know?

You’re not wrong.

All of a sudden the used car industry is popular.

So Trump really was the last American president.

Cause this ain't America no more.

They do. Most new vehicles are governed between 110mph and 125mph with the exception of sports cars.

Bullshit. .04 is 1 beer. I don't know anyone who is drunk on 1 beer, much less 2.

I used one of those drink counter apps once that estimates your BAC based on the alcohol content and frequency just to see where I was with it out of curiosity. I didn't even feel a buzz until the thing said .12 and didn't start to feel drunk until it said .16. So, that would be 4 beers in an hour. I'd say that's quite a bit if you're going out for a night of drinking at the bar. I don't know anyone who goes out and drinks like this.

I would say, if you're drinking 4 beers an hour the problem isn't your driving its that you're a total drunk.

Frankly, a lot of these people who get sloshed at the bar aren't sloshed because they drank at the bar... they drink all day long and then go to the bar and drink some more and then drive home and drink some more.

The police, on the other hand, will sit a couple blocks down from a bar and then look for excuses to pop moderate drinkers who aren't drunk with a DUI while claiming they're "saving the world."

Too many gadgets in the new cars. They're not only annoying but can be dangerous too.

Hardly anyone likes these new cars.
