Ronald Reagan said the scariest words in the English language were "I'm from the government and I'm here to help"

Wow,

Granted it doesn't sound that much different than the driver alert monitor that has been in my past few ford trucks. Especially my blue cruise equipped one, but at most if you bounce against the lane departure too many times it just pops up with a cup of coffee saying break recommended, nothing like they are proposing

That being said, it has been shown that drowsy driving is as bad as drunk driving

That is fun in the Bronco.

They make a tall car. Shape it like a brick.

So when you herd it down the road with a stiff crosswind it can throw the coffee cup message at you because it thinks you are swerving because you are tired.

great excuse to add a cross wind detector to interact with the yaw sensor .

so, the head nod sensor, how does it handle a driver really gettin' into the music?

Sorry to sound like an old crank on this fine Tuesday morning, but I genuinely think Gen beta are going to grow up with no concept of what privacy, freedom and liberty actually are.

We're basically there now: cameras literally everywhere and crappy AI trying to figure out what you're doing and what your intentions are. I can't wrap my head around how anyone out there just accepts this stuff as "progress".

Hold on, gotta adjust my tinfoil hat.
