"Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety." - Ben Franklin [1] I don't need to rationalize technical reasons for believing this. Driving drunk is already illegal; the over-prevalence of it is an enforcement and sentencing issue. The same could be said for many several other driving and personal safety issues. I will outright state that given the choice between my expected delta mortality rate due to driving in southern CA with vs. without a speed-governed, breathalyzer equipped, government regulated mandated vehicle law - I'd take the risk as is. 100%, every time. Giving the government or other large bureaucracy this level of control over anything has a much larger negative side. Yes! I am willing to die for liberty. Even more willing to have a tiny bit higher chance of getting killed on the road for liberty.
