This seems to be in the same category as seatbelts

  Seatbelts don't stop the car from working.

  Seatbelts don't make judgements about my cognitive ability or sample and record health data.

  Can a seatbelt strand you on the side of the road in the middle of the night? Can a seatbelt turn off your car in the winter? Can a seatbelt collect private data from you? Can a seatbelt record everything you do?

    Can a seatbelt hug? Can a seatbelt love? Can a seatbelt … feel?

      Carefull what you wish. A seatbelt maybe not yet but a seat for sure.

  https://www.motorbiscuit.com/automatic-seat-belt-terrible-idea/ https://www.motorbiscuit.com/automatic-seat-belt-terrible-id... Automatic seatbelts we’re tried. Was a horrible idea. I still have bad memories of those things as a kid.

    IIRC it was a cheaper option of supplemental restraint system that the driver didn't control as a phase in period before airbags became the only acceptable SRS.

  I suppose as long as the built in breathalyser merely makes a loud beeping noise the whole time you're driving if your over the limit, this would be fine.

  What on earth are you talking about? Seatbelts are FULLY OPTIONAL. Not LEGALLY, but functionally. If your seatbelt malfunctions somehow, you can still drive. If the "infrared cameras" that are constantly watching you and totally not sharing that data with anyone glitch out (and see our old friend the Kinect for how likely that is), you're fucked.
