Biden’s ‘Infrastructure’ Bill Contains Backdoor ‘Kill Switch’ For Cars
Buried deep within the massive infrastructure legislation recently signed by President Joe Biden is a little-noticed “safety” measure that will take effect in five years. Marketed to Congress as a benign tool to help prevent drunk driving, the measure will mandate that automobile manufacturers build into every car what amounts to a “vehicle kill switch.”

As has become standard for legislative mandates passed by Congress, this measure is disturbingly short on details. What we do know is that the “safety” device must “passively monitor the performance of a driver of a motor vehicle to accurately identify whether that driver may be impaired.”

no more police chases will be necessary in the future...cars will be shut down remotely.

if the feature is ever disabled, the car will cease to function and the warranty will be void.

potential criminals will be easily identified because they'll most likely choose to drive cars made before the kill switch feature was enacted.

Thats a dangerous opinion.

This technology can and will be abused ya moran.

Tyranny always comes wrapped in a pretty 'for your health and saftey' bow.

Haven't youbtards learned by now this has nothing to do with drunk driving or catching real bad guys.

This will be used to control and restrict travel among people that aren't down with a totalitarian technocracy.

Let us spell it out for you: by 2026, vehicles sold in the US will be required to automatically and silently record various metrics of driver performance, and then make a decision, absent any human oversight, whether the owner will be allowed to use their own vehicle. Even worse, the measure goes on to require that the system be "open" to remote access by "authorized" third parties at any time.

It’s very simple. Do not buy or use the car that is equipped with that. You do not need that new Whiz Bang Ching Mai Silverdingo Himalaya Edition. I don’t care how large the screen is.

Buy yourself a fine old car and learn to love it.

We need to keep our cars in good repair so we don't have to replace them with newer models. I am grateful that the lure of a new vehicle does not affect me.

I am a practical person. Although when I purchased my new car 6 years ago I could have bought a far fancier model I instead chose a Chevy Spark. Manual transmission, manual door locks, 40 miles to the gallon. I am a small person so it fits me like a glove. It has blue tooth and a backup camera which is plenty of technology for me.

But it came with Onstar. Not only did I never use it but they told me they could not disconnect it. Once a month I would get a report about my tire pressure, how much longer I could go before I needed an oil change etc. This is redundant. You get all this info every time you start your car right there on your dash. Seriously? I don't need to know this everyday from multiple sources.

Finally last year I got the notice that it would be disconnected. Yeah!

I don't want Alexa listening to me. I will not allow a smart meter on my house. If we purchase a "smart" appliance I have learned not to connect it to my phone, because, yes, I know my oven needs cleaning. I do not want my frig ordering milk.

Good grief. All this spying is turning me into a Luddite.
No good deed goes unpunished.

Laws could be passed, like at the California loading docks, to only allow vehicles of a certain age on the road. Therefore, vehicles only having computers and Wifi will be allowed on the road. All others could be ticketed and/or impounded...
