Hey 509, I'm sorry that I can't take you seriously since you stated in your first post you drove to Berkley... which tells me that you're a California/West Coast Far-Leftist, socialist/communist and an elitist who feels that you have the moral right to enforce your failed ideals on this country.
Seriously, California is a national joke and most of the country isn't stupid enough to follow their lead.
Btw, you high taxes will destroy the working class, especially people of color... The same people you claim to want to help. If you really want to help people of color and this country, please keep your silly ideals inside the borders of California.
The Europeans are going to require all their cars have speed governors linked to GPS. You litterally, will NOT be able to go over the speed limit. I believe the proposal is to start it in 2022.
For us....it is even simpler. The state governments can contract with Google. Google knows how fast your phone is going, where it is, and the speed limit for that section of road. Shutting off the phone, doesn't work....Google still knows where you are.
The only way to avoid it would be to travel without a phone. I don't think anybody would do that.
It would be just like the red light cameras. You get a ticket in the mail.
Why tax the consumer? Why not force auto manufacturers to make higher MPG cars like what Obama had in place? Also, America could invest in public transit and more sustainable urban development. However, that would go against what the baby boomers view as the American Dream (TM) i.e. a house in suburbia, at the end of a cul-de-sac, with a white picket fence and two cars in the garage.
Try going to a supermarket and bringing home a week's groceries on a city bus. Even if you can find a bus or any other public transit going where you need, when you need it.
And the vast majority of towns in this country are too small to afford or use public transit.

Thanks for the reminder. Everyone can thank Obama for the annoying and dangerous stop/start feature now in our cars.
A car is freedom to go anywhere at anytime ...
There is a reason passenger trains went extinct because they have to follow their own tracks ...lol...
