It's a gateway for more government tyranny
Fourth Amendment Violation by Gov Bob Ferguson

Well If you’re walking into office 16b underwater, this seems like a great idea from a revenue perspective because I can promise you that local and state will be incentivized heavily to enforce at the police and court level.
Get popped doing 70 across the 520 bridge at 630am? That’ll be:
- A speeding ticket at 250.00 or whatever…
- A half day off work to attend traffic court because this is obviously a process that cannot be administered any other way than in-person.
- Paying for the installation and equipment for the governor device on your car(let’s say another half day off work). No way this happens for under 500.00
- A 21.00/mo subscription for the term of the penalty(1yr?)
- Raise in monthlies on your auto insurance premiums, which are already inflated due to the fact that we are a leader in break ins and auto theft.
lol this turns a Speeding ticket and over the phone fine payment into a 1,000.00 ordeal and DUI-esque time penalty for going TEN MPH over the posted limit.
What the fuck are we doing, guys?
Good point Bob
Time for an equity clause. Only white drivers get popped

This is a great point and It’s only fair. You can’t expect minorities to have a valid registration/DL/insurance. They just don’t have the same kinds of access to the DOL website as the rest of the population.
In fact it’s probably racist to impose those kinds of standards on the marginalized communities in our great state. Double that penalty for white people and Asians to make up the shortfall. Maybe impose a lift in monthly fees for internal combustion engines.
The potential is there to really fuck with people driving two and from work and we can’t let that opportunity go uncaptured
Every accident I encounter yet these days seems to involve an Indian or a feeble looking Asian (not the tuff Tukwila Asians). The common denominator here is that they are drivers that don’t make their intentions obvious to other drivers and can’t figure out which lane they want to be in. That’s a far bigger issue than speed.
Tunnel vision out on the road is a the recipe for disaster. And it happens always w this group of non-citizens. Which is amazing when you consider the traffic from where they came.
Add cruise control that automatically keeps a distance from the vehicle in front of them. Guaranteed road rage to follow. But it’s the road rager’s fault instead of the aforementioned idiot assholes.
What a day to be alive.

Much like the DUI thing is all a racket. The difference being that no one has sympathy for drunk drivers but everyone speeds at some point.
I'm sure the installers will all be on a shortlist of approved contractors. All who happen to lobby and donate to a certain party.
Like any other industry that can't remain relevant without government intervention, they lobbied for the bill in the name of "safety" to secure their financial windfall.
Yeah good point... maybe raise it 10mph for all that bs

That's news to me. Such as what? Not being MAGA does not make somebody a far left radical with an agenda for government intrusion despite what Mr Trump tells you endlessly.
