Until we got to the camera-controlled M3. Instantaneously, every vehicle slowed to the exact speed (which was then only 50 mph*). Every vehicle maintained the exact speed, and thus, its exact position. Like buckets on a conveyor belt. No one drove faster or slower than anyone else.

It was eerie. Chilling, even. Big Brother was watching.

* England was testing its “smart” roadway.

It’s got to the point where people brake hard whenever they see something even remotely out of place along the side of the road, whether they’re speeding or not.

Road safety? It’s got worse, as the irregular driving this causes leads to accidents.

It’s all about revenue, as becomes apparent when seeing the distribution of cameras which are situated not in known dangerous areas (where people tend to be careful and not speed) but on long stretches of open road hidden behind overpasses and in treelines.

More than 4 million people live in the DC commuter belt.

Speed camera’s – check
Red Light cameras – check
Public surveillance cameras – check
Fixed traffic Radar, (in some places, yep.) – check
Mobile radar, (Absolutely everywhere, in every highway patrol car!) – check

We even had a universal 55mph speed limit for about 20 years! It even included places like Montana, Wyoming, and Texas. Remember that?**

So, we are not so much better off.

** I once heard it said that driving across Texas at 55mph wasn’t a trip, it was a career.

Gerald,

You have the right of it. Armed force, naked violence is the only thing that will stop those who seek power and control because in the final analysis, they will resort to whatever level of violence is needed to secure that control.

Their lust for power and control is insatiable because power and control can never satiate the malady that ails their souls.

This is true for all who seek to rule over others. They are rabid dogs, pretending to be sheepdogs. Rabid dogs must be put down and cancers cut out of the body. The American Left is a societal cancer.

My understanding is that all new Hondas have GPS and continuous internet connection as standard. Arrgh! (If I can locate the correct RF chip maybe I can just hammer a Philips screwdriver through it?)

I don’t know what kind of antenna this tracking-gear uses, but it certainly needs to have an unobstructed antenna.

The signal needs to be transmitted from the antenna to the electronics. This could be a small-gauge coax-type cable. The transmission cable must be properly connected to both the antenna and the electronics, for this system to work.

The electronics requires electrical power to work. It gets power from the vehicle 12v system.

I have a used laptop with a built-in camera. The camera software was activating itself, and the modem indicated activity at the same time. The camera must have an unobstructed view out the little hole its mounted in.

Robots taking over? Artificial Intelligence making us obsolete? Yeah well … here, hold my beer.

What’s scary is that the ‘elites’ want to do the same here.

Very sad.
