Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I haven't had a drink of alcohol in 25 years. Yet, Big Brother wants me to pay for a breathalyzer on my new car. What's next? It's a slippery slope.
I'd rather that money go toward teaching new drivers how to be a better, smarter driver. Invest on the front end, don't try to fix it after the fact.
Will drivers just buy older cars without this feature? LOL
That was my first thought. My second thought is that I am never renting a car in CA if this goes through - Those devices would be dirtier than a $2 hooker.
Well, the lawmakers need something to distract them from, well, their jobs.
You mean like reducing the state budget deficit and saving the state from bankruptcy.
IMO, this does nothing. As a former heathcare provider, MANY were the times that patients confided in me they had mixed their meds and did so frequently. One lady, was so fearful of the doctor, she took 2 klonopines and a codeine, I asked who is driving you home? ME It doesn't matter anyhow, in a world with emerging technologies for cars to judge distances between themselves it's not hard to see the end game. Soon, you won't be "driving" at all, expect maybe in special parks. Everything will be automated, then people can text without killing other people trying to get a loaf of bread.
