Sure, the federal government can control the sales of cars. However, the interstate highways are owned and operated by california. California is also the sole authority who can register cars in the state of california for operation. So, while the federal government can force california to allow californians to buy cars produced in another state, it should not be able to force california to allow those cars to be driven on roads owned by the state of california.
