For a system as large as this, with severe safety implications, you really don’t want to start on the wrong foot.

minus-squareJustin@lemmy.jlh.namelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down2·edit-22 months agoThe article doesn’t say that the NHTSA asked Newsom to veto, just that they were working on a similar regulation. It sounded like the car companies just wanted him to veto it so they could keep reckless drivers as a customer base. The proposed regulation only kicks in at 10 mph over the speed limit (ie reckless driving and deadly to pedestrians)
