I say, bring it! Far too many accidents and subsequent deaths result from drunk driving. There is zero room for driving under the influence. I hope they can develop a system that is impossible to disable and has no false positives.

That's why vehicles should not be dependent on those extras for core functionality! Graceful degradation is a thing, and I which car manufactures would educate themselves about it.The more tech they pack onto vehicles, the shorter their lifespan as well.
Fault tolerance is the resilient property that enables a system to continue operating properly in the event of failure or major dysfunction in one or more of its components. If its operating quality decreases at all, the decrease is proportional to the severity of the failure, as compared to a naively designed system, in which even a small failure can lead to total breakdown. Fault tolerance is particularly sought after in high-availability, mission-critical, or even life-critical systems. The ability of maintaining functionality when portions of a system break down is referred to as graceful degradation.
The EU has made fitting the interface for these things mandatory, but I think not the device itself. That would make it simple for a court to order someone with a previous conviction to fit the device itself to their car. The devices are generally things you blow into.don't they already have this tech in cars? i think it must be court ordered. i'm sure that by the time it is actually installed, those kind of flase positives will be worked out. it did mention that they can rely on other tech like drowsy awareness being among them.
my guess it will be a while before these things are included in new cars.
You don't want prisoners believing that, if they don't change their ways, they'll be in trouble with God?[P]risoners even get TV, internet, and can attend church for crying out loud
I don't think church should be in prisons. It's a separation of church and state since prisons are part of the government.
Same reason you don't find the Ten Commandments on school classrooms anymore.
Prohibiting them from atending religious services sounds like breaking the "prohibiting the free exercise thereof" bit. Unless you're willing to let them out of jail to attend religious services, the servies would have to be on prison grounds. That is not the same thing as the government establishing or endorsing any particular religion or denomination!Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
I think you're jumping from one extreme to the other. That is: You think prisons are too soft, so you want to strip prisoners of all rights. And I remind you, you're the one who said "all your rights".Prison is supposed to be punishment though. You give up all your rights the instant they say 'we the jury have found the defendent guilty of all charges'
Tesla already has this ability. There are already stories of them artificially limiting the range and speed of a 'modded' Tesla, or one that the owner decided to deny a software update. Pretty much guarantees I'll never own a modern car, EV or otherwise. There is literally zero reason to have cellular connectivity in a vehicle. Some vehicle makes have ToS's that say they can literally spy on anyone in the vehicle, which is both a violation of privacy and your rights.My take on this is that if the government puts something on your vehicle to control it's operation it can simply turn it off at will.
I don't trust the government enough to believe that the technology wouldn't be abused.
