Should the government restrict the use of advanced technology in vehicles to maintain human control and prevent over-reliance on technology?

This considers limiting the integration of advanced technologies in vehicles to ensure humans retain control and to prevent dependency on technological systems. Proponents argue that it preserves human control and prevents over-reliance on potentially fallible technology. Opponents argue that it hinders technological progress and the benefits that advanced technology can bring to safety and efficiency.

No, with the sole exception of autonomous driving.

 @BDZ3PFKanswered…2wks2W

No, but advanced technology should be monitored with more scrutiny to maintain road safety

 @BDNVJ64 answered…1mo1MO

No but only when the technology (like waymo) is advanced enough

 @BDFH24Ranswered…2mos2MO

Not in the cases of assisting drivers with disabilities or medical conditions

The government should restrict advanced technology in vehicles to maintain safety, not necessarily human control

 @BCZJP99answered…2mos2MO

Realistically too much tech in cars is sometimes unnecessary and confusing anyway, but if people choose to use it or buy a car with it in that's their choice. The government does not need involvement in everything.

 @BBHVBS2answered…4mos4MO

Yes, but only as far as improving signalling systems, rolling out driver-only operation, and some automation/driverless service on local-scale services e.g. the London Underground.

Less governement control on EVERYTHING, they can't be trusted. The only time you can trust anyone in this government is if they are benefiting themselves in some way.
