Welcome to Big Brother, good thing all you dems voted for this dementia Patient.

Section 13002 of the bill includes a “per-mile user fee pilot” designed to help offset the highway infrastructure money lost via fuel taxes as vehicles become more efficient and/or electrified. Unfortunately the program aims to use connected OBD-II devices, OEM-collected telematic data, smartphone app, and information from insurance companies to effectively allow the government to track your whereabouts 24/7 and set up a payment plan using information you didn’t necessarily give up willingly. Some of those systems could also be leveraged to assist in some of the other proposals that have been tucked away in the bill, including the aforementioned inebriation issue.
