This is a great story to illuminate the large number of problems that could be addressed by decent public transit, better options for walking and biking, etc.
Boo for the cyber attack but fuck people who drive drunk repeatedly to the point of needing an interlock device. Maybe don’t drink and drive you fucking sack of shit.
Never knew anyone who had one, but a friend of mine dated a guy who did. He would beg her to breathe into it for him.
That’s insane but as an alcoholic I can absolutely see someone doing it.
Some are social butterflies who have to be out and about but talk about not learning lessons.
“Not learning lessons” is a pretty mild way to put it.
The only way it isn’t pure evil is if we allow that the alcoholic is not in control of their actions. And if we allow that, they cannot be trusted to drive, or really to even have their freedom. They are 5150, plain and simple.
They’re in control but reaching them is something best done by people like them in my experience.
Logic only goes so far, clearly.
I know someone that did it once and having to have one of these as a result. Suggest you reset your opinions a bit.
Nope, shouldn’t of done it once. Pretty easy to not drink and drive.
have, not of.

“I know someone who only did a murder once and they locked them right up. Suggest you reset your opinions a bit.”
Replace murder with any crime.
If you don’t want to face the consequences, don’t do the action that begets the consequences.
TLDR: don’t fuck around if you don’t wanna find out.
Fun fact: In the US you can get a DUI for sleeping it off in your car, a passenger drinking while you drive (open container laws), or failing a bullshit coordination test graded by a racist cop without them ever checking your blood alcohol.
Also a fun fact: you could also just not drink and drive or allow others to drink in your car.
Do you think it’s justified to ban someone from driving for letting other people drink in the car?
If so, why? What good would that achieve?
Nice straw man. Murder != drunk driving.
Killing someone with your car = murder Fuck drink drivers!
Having a breathalyzer is letting them off easy, they deserve to lose their license
They lost their license for 2 years. The equipment was required to get it back.
Okay? Seems reasonable, why should I reset my opinion?
Hegseth is gonna be even more angry than
bornnormal when he can’t drive from point a to point b because of this.To be fair, I too would be angry had I been born normal.
Internet connected breathalyzer… May I ask why? If they need periodic recalibrations all of them don’t need it right now no?
Play stupid games win stupid prizes.
A “cyberattack”? Or vibe coded AI slop running as intended?
A “great question”? Or just AI brain in action?
Only you can explain what the fuck you’re talking about/prevent wildfires
That’s why you use the ones with the weird salt inside. No computer, no problem !
Hot take but if you need a breathalyzer to drive you don’t deserve to drive anymore.
I think it as undone, but there was a very serious plan to put breathalyzers in all cars. This cyberattack should give people some pause. https://www.jalopnik.com/the-in-car-breathalyzer-is-only-a-few-years-away-1850268311/
Yessss, we need more tracking in your day to day because drunks, yesssss, or the children, yessss, or uh, err, uhhh, teenagers, yessssss!
Please give us all your data! For safety reasons, yesssssa
Yeah, because it so much more smart to just buy another car if someone in your family need a breathalyzer to drive just because of a beer.
The first time I ever heard of/saw one of these things was in the show Pluribus, how common are they??
drinking is some baby idiot garbage
Only those cars that needed a breathalyzer for reasons.
Not much of a loss, I’d say.
