Please...no politics here !!! I left 2 other forums cause everyday members were bashing govt and talking blue/red.
Please not here !!!

I work for the govt, part time now. However I feel like they need a little bashing now and again to get stuff right. And I don't care about blue or red, it's all purple now. My happy thought for Thursday! Not being political here, just being American.

If lives are saved, its the direction things will go. Like it or not.
If manufacturers want government bailouts, or support, they're in the governments pocket and follow their mandate like good children.
But isnt this topic is very borderline on politics?
The quoted text on the thread itself refers to the government numerous times. We can't talk politics or has that changed?

How are you supposed to pass someone on a two lane HWY?
Maybe it will be connected to Google maps and if you aren't driving fast enough, it will force you to speed up????????

If they can, They will. The march of technology goes on... It is not about saving lives and never has been. Just to be clear, this is NOT a political statement.

I will say this. The article mentions the whole connected thing where they can access your registration and other info. There is a push for this to decrease the amount of traffic stops by police. There is a town in Texas now where you can voluntarily sign up for a program like this and when the police run your registration, the summons is mailed to you instead.

The digital world is upon us and there's no stopping it now. AZ was the first state to have a digital drivers license added to the app and to your Apple Wallet. You just scan your original ID and it's now with you on your phone at all times. I actually kind of like this because I don't always carry my wallet and when I had the Jeep I could jump in knowing my ID was with me at all times. I think they just added MI recently.

I’m all for it if… every wanted criminal is locked in their own car and then it delivers them to the police station for arrest. Got a kid that’s past curfew? Let’s see where they are. Lock them in and drive them home. Wife out shopping to long? Lock her out of the car and bring it home! I walk to the bar so ?
