Yes, it says it’s false. Here’s the pertinent line:
identifies whether they may be impaired and prevents or limits motor vehicle operation “if an impairment is detected.”
That’s called a killswitch.
On the law itself, it’s Section 24220 - b - 1 - a - ii AND 24220 - b - 1 - b - ii
Just a reminder that fact checkers blatantly lie, and will even tell you they’re lying. It takes like two minutes to fact check laws like this.
That’s not what the claim is. The claim is that the law requires a killswitch. And the law does.
The point of the post is that “fact checkers” lie. They are not trustworthy.
Ok I read it carefully. The law is that manufacturers have three years to set the standards for what tech to use to make cars that can tell if you’re drunk and then turn off. Is that still a kill switch?
Yes, a killswitch turns off machines.
But that’s not the context of the article/why they said it was false:
The headline lies. Correct me if I’m wrong, but its a motte and bailey.
By the definition of the above tweet (which is what the article is talking about) there is no kill switch.
