I'm against a device that may or may not record me or take my health stats and report them to a central database every time I get into a vehicle. I don't trust this not to be used as yet another automated surveillance tool for the government. if there is one thing I don't trust the government with, it's visibility at scale.
If we had guts, we would ban bars from selling anyone more than three drinks, and ban bars from serving anyone who has had a drink anywhere else that day. (or something, I'm brainstorming).
- zip1234 5y agoIt is widely accepted that driving a dangerous machine that endangers the lives of others is a privilege and responsibility that comes with restrictions.
- stopagephobia 5y agoMeh, prohbiition dont work, we tried it. We cant even keep kids from drinking. Theres already a cultural shift away from as much heavy drinking, a lot more of the young people I know dont drink at all or drink only a bit and are more accepting of people who don't drink. Also how would you prevent other bars from selling to people without a centralized database.

TABC (Texas bar regulator) tells all bartenders TODAY that you cannot serve someone to excess (above 0.08% BAC) and cannot serve someone who is already drunk. I guarantee you that every single bartender in Texas has violated this regulation. When the regulations step in with reality, and are enforced, maybe fewer people would be overserved.
