I'm saying the government has no right to search your person with no probable cause. Forcing a person to take a breathalyzer test ( which is a search of his body) every time he gets into a car with absolutely no probable cause is a violation of the 4th Amendment.
and yet you still made an utter fool of yourself on your bumbling way to understandingWay ahead you son, as usual..
Me neither, but having transmitted data vs. video of a driver's appearance is like having an email vs. talking to an answering machine
Sure, like seat belts, air bags and emissions requirements you'll have to pay for them.These breathalyzers actually are a search of your person with no probable cause.
The government will be forcing you to pay for these when you buy a new car as well.
This can't be constitutional.
Is it going to ensure you have a driver's license as well?Under the Biden administration's $1 trillion infrastructure package, a mandate requires automakers to install new technology in vehicles to prevent motorists from driving intoxicated. As reported by the Associated Press, with the provision, Congress is pushing for the monitoring systems to begin rolling out in new vehicles no later than 2026.
According to the assholes they keep electing...According to who?
You can sit in your car and drink all day long.OK here is the latest and greatest way the government wants to do something for your own good.
All new cars manufactured after 2026 are mandated to have alcohol detection systems.
Now is this going too far?
IMO your car is an extension of your home and the inside of that car is covered under the 4th Amendment protections.
If the government cannot mandate that your home has a breathalyzer installed that will not let you leave your house if you are drunk how can it be constitutional to place one in a car that will basically electronically perform a search of your body with zero probable cause?
I think I'll invest in a used car dealership. This will be another invasive statist shitshow.You can sit in your car and drink all day long.
But the moment you put the keys in the ignition you're DUI.
That's the law in most states.
In many places just having the keys within reach will get you the DUI.
In the OP, the government isn't searching you or charging you with any crime. So, your complaint is not only without merit, it can be argued the government is trying to stay out of your business since the vehicle won't start if you're drunk there's no reason to check on a person drinking in one of these vehicles. No dui, no disorderly...If government intrusion is your bogeyman this rule should delight you.
Save lives
Reduce DUIs and arrests
all without government interference in your life.
Unless you're defending drinking and driving.

And this is how you allow your rights to be slowly eroded.You can sit in your car and drink all day long.

No one dies when you loiter.And this is how you allow your rights to be slowly eroded.
What's next?
If a cop says to you, "If you have nothing to hide why don't you let us search your house/" I bet you bend over don't you?
What's going to happen when your car won't start then you'll just get arrested for loitering
I'm sure you get off on this kind of posturing, but you need to understand that it's exactly the kind of "we-know-betterism" that drives people to support an unhinged populist like Trump.No one dies when you loiter.
People die when you drive drunk.
The "gubmint" isn't stopping you, the car is.
Call it "self defense" and be happy they're not giving the car a concealed carry permit.
THAT would stop lots of crime.

No, it is the inability to reason that drives people to support simplistic "build a wall" non-solutions that drive people to Trump.I'm sure you get off on this kind of posturing, but you need to understand that it's exactly the kind of "we-know-betterism" that drives people to support an unhinged populist like Trump.
Keep telling yourself that. Democrats created Trump.No, it is the inability to reason that drives people to support simplistic "build a wall" non-solutions that drive people to Trump.
And driving at .08 does, in fact, lead to drunk driving accidents.Driving at .08 BAL does not always result in someone dying in fact it hardly ever results in someone dying
If you don't have engine coolant or oil or dirty air filter or seat belt on...the car will start and operate. It will ding and buzz at you but it will run.
