      The California Senate has passed SB 961, which would require “passive speed limiters” to be installed in all new cars manufactured or sold in the Golden State by 2032.

      They wouldn’t be liable for speeders anyways that’s criminal misuse by a third party. Just like how Craftsman isn’t to blame when someone gets hit with a wrench. And there are lawful purposes for vehicles that can travel more than the state’s speed limit, like racing on tracks or when rushing to a hospital in an emergency.

      This is such a stupid fucking timeline. No shit the manufacturers aren’t responsible for the driving behavior of the drivers. Ugh! Like, get a fucking clue.
