    It sounds like made up garbage to me, another weak attempt to smear Biden and his presidency by lame brains with no culture or education of their own. But even so, if there is such a thing as a vehicle kill switch, I can think of several people near for whom I’d love to see it implemented.

    Just last week three kids were turned to bloody smears on the road by a teenage girl going 125 in our 25 mph zone neighborhood (a school zone). A week before, two kids were killed by another speeding teenage driver. Last year, we had 34 kids killed by people speeding in our neighborhood, and three left as quadriplegics.

    I’m sure most people think they aren’t such monsters behind the wheel, the truth is not in whatpeople say they do but in what they actually do behind the wheel. To me, a vehicle kill switch OUGHT to be implemented along with a host of other anti-speeding anti-reckless driving measures. I’ve seen too much what happens when people dangerously violate the lives of others and their rights to exist.

    A little violation of personal privacy would go along way to helping stop these monsters on our roads.

      While your points are valid, it ignores the issue it would create. Once a feature exists, everyone has access to it.

      What about some decent driver’s education and not letting kids drive cars? Just like the rest of the civilized world handles it?

        Yeah but, I live in Utah. Driver’s ed is mandatory but kids ignore all the advice they are given. And if you come here and expect to see civility - you’re f#cking out of luck. You’ve never seen reckless drivers like we have here, you can’t even begin to imagine how bad it really is.
