Joe Biden imposed one illegal socialist power grab after another since taking office.
The attacks on Americans’ liberties are breathtaking.
And now this Joe Biden kill switch is about to wreak havoc on every American’s life.
Democrats and RINOs like Mitch McConnell and Mitt Romney slipped a provision into a 2021 Green New Deal bill that mandated every car in America include a kill switch by 2026.
This kill switch is supposed to detect if a driver is impaired and automatically shut down the car.
But that isn’t how it will work at all.
Kentucky Congressman Thomas Massie grilled National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Acting Administrator Ann Carlson about the kill-switch technology noting that it had no way of detecting if a driver was under the influence of alcohol or swerved to avoid a pothole or animal crossing the road.
“Section 24220 of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act requires NHTSA, your department, to issue a regulation that by 2026, all newly manufactured passenger vehicles can — and now I’ll read from the statute — ‘passively monitor the performance of a driver of a motor vehicle to accurately identify whether that driver may be impaired and prevent or limit motor vehicle operation if an impairment is detected,’” Massie stated. “Now we’re two years past the passage of this law and we’re three years away from the deadline, not just for the rule, but for the auto manufacturers to comply. How will this technology work? And does it exist presently?”
Carlson admitted the technology to distinguish between impaired and defensive driving or falsely detect Americans having alcohol in their blood doesn’t exist.
“We think there are promising technologies on the market but I think it’s safe to say that we do not think they are available yet in a way that actually will achieve the goals, both of the bipartisan infrastructure law and the Vehicle Safety Act, and our [Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking] actually asks a bunch of questions about how we might get there,” Carlson added. “If we do get there, what problems might arise as a result? We don’t, for example, want to have false positives, where somebody is detected to have … alcohol in their blood … and in fact does not, and can’t start their vehicle.”
The car kill switch is Joe Biden’s latest attempt to use the Green New Deal to restrict Americans’ lifestyle choices.
Biden already imposed one mandate that two-thirds of all new cars in America be electric vehicles by 2030.
Electric vehicles are more expensive and less efficient than gas-powered cars, but they help achieve the liberal goal of destroying the oil and natural gas industry.
Car kill switches can be used to shut down the vehicles of Americans who drive too much as liberals claim cutting down on emissions will help combat climate change.
The Biden administration is already looking to ban natural gas stoves in the name of climate change.
Liberal environmentalists want to ban hamburgers and force Americans to eat plant-based meat and bugs.
A car kill switch is another club in the bag for the socialist left to exploit the Green New Deal to control Americans’ lives.
