This is fear-mongering/rage-bait. Lawmakers have by 2026 to make up rules for car manufacturers to follow for new technology regarding drunk drivers. Maybe it's a kill switch, maybe it's not.
Either way, new cars will factually not have kill switches by 2026 because nothing will be defined until then. How long after is an unknown.
Edit: I made an error with my dates. Lawmakers have until Dec 2024 to make the rules. The earliest a manufacturer can enact the rule is after Dec 2026. But lawmakers can also extend the dates and also have until Dec 2031 to submit barriers and reasons why the system may not work.
