The all new Ford Narc 2024, with optional stitches.

Why not just have a speed cap on cars?

And have it auto adjust based on the roads limit. We have gps and data for every road. Driving is a privilege not a right, nobody has the right to speed faster than the posted limit.

I’ll stop speeding when the mfs around here stop building 6 lane roads with a 30mph speed limit.

Ill stop speading when I stop having freebird play randomly.

Jeeve65 ,

No speed cap yet, but all new cars sold in the EU must have a signal that alerts the driver if they’re driving faster than the current speed limit.

Because it’s dangerous. Sometimes you have to exceed the speed limit to avoid a collision.

And then selling a subscription to turn it off

Surprised it took this long. Well, guess that means it’s time to faraday cage the 5g radios in the vehicles or find a way to create a super small jammer that can only broadcast in your car. Some sort of license plate blocker that only shows at a certain angle too.

Fuck that shit.

You won’t buy a Ford because it’ll rat you out to the cops

I won’t buy a Ford because they’re dog shit vehicles

We are not the same

systemglitch ,

With how rarely Toyota’s break down, I hesitate to consider any other car company. Ford is near bottom of the barrel.

2002 Echo 248000 still going. Not a truck but still, go Toyota!

Oh. Well, shit.

sndmn ,

Are they trying to sell fewer vehicles?

“But if we market it as a subscription service, then surely customers will want it” - Some clueless executive

adarza ,

it’ll be something the cops subscribe to, and car owners will have no say.

mars296 ,

What they should do is give the car owners a cut if the ticket fees. They would have people patrolling the streets to catch speeders. There also be a big uptick in vandalism of Fords. I would love to watch this experiment with some popcorn.

joyjoy ,

Pay to lose

chemicalprophet ,

Fascist nazi fuck company. Class traitor ICE vehicles seem on point though.

turbowafflz ,

Ooh yes good patent it so other manufacturers won’t do it. It’s a win-win since I already wouldn’t want a ford

Edit: what it uses cameras to look at other vehicles??? That is much worse

pete_the_cat ,

Yep, it snitches on other cars!

Ooh yes good patent it so other manufacturers won't do it.

Patents don't necessarily stop other OEMs from using it. It just means they'll have to pay Ford a fee to license it, themselves.

eestileib ,

Ooh that’s gonna get your car keyed.

TransplantedSconie ,

You have a strange way of writing molotov cocktailled.

tunetardis ,

Interesting. The article suggests the car would photograph others speeding rather than reporting itself.

Personally, I don’t mind speeders so much except when they’re weaving between traffic recklessly. I do really hate tailgaters though. So a rear-facing camera maybe?

PythagreousTitties ,

How about neither

@Sterile_Technique@lemmy.world avatar

Sooo how long before we find a way to jailbreak the thing and essentially have an on-board “give that car a ticket” button to report false speed data on any driver we happen to be pissed off at?

…yeah I’d 100% abuse the fuck out of that.
