    The federal government promises this surveillance saves 9,000-10,000 lives annually.

    Wikipedia says roughly 42k people died of car related injuries in 2022.

    So, the government is promising that this brand new technology that has not had any field testing whatsoever is going to reduce car related deaths by 23%?

    They’re lucky theres no way to sue over a broken promise.

    Here’s a great way to reduce car deaths to near 0%

    functional public transit.

      It’s not about reducing road fatalities.

      It’s about surveilling political enemies.

      It’ll have sudden false positives the moment you talk about how bad the government is. It’ll suddenly appear in counter-terrorism surveillance.
