Your idea of being an American and my idea are miles apart. This country was founded on the quest for personal freedom and we have been giving them away ever since.

Me I take issue with having unelected and unaccountable bureaucrats craft laws that effect me.

Maybe you missed the part about this being burred in the 1,039-page 2021 Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act that nobody had time to read before voting. If you think this is uncommon you are naive.

You seem to have missed the fact that it
IS signed law.

You don't know that as the rules haven been written but if it to be effect it must make a immediate response so maybe you can expect a change in engine to limp home mode. Good luck on where and when that happens and how you get out of it if you're not impaired.

Eventually, it could make things like Blind Spot Detection and crash avoidance a lot more reliable. Less on the car using sensors to "guess" what is nearby and can accurately know. Potentially, even getting accurate data on impending collisions to improve safety.

Of course you do. Maybe you can just take the train and have your dream today.
Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it on to our children in the bloodstream. The only way they can inherit the freedom we have known is if we fight for it, protect it, defend it, and then hand it to them with the well fought lessons of how they in their lifetime must do the same. And if you and I don’t do this, then you and I may well spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it once was like in America when men were free.
