Reality can sometimes smack you upside the head.
Enjoy your virtue signaling.

""There will be a secondary mechanism to get in or out of the car beyond the app, the difficulty will come for drivers if they are not carrying it," he said." It is called a "key". EVERY car should have a keyed entry and start system as a full parallel to any electronic assholery.

Wow....I'd be flaming.
A fob would be nice.
Or a prayer to the Electric God.

Can you imagine people fleeing fires in CA and this happening?
Also, it will come in handy when we have climate lockdowns like we had Kung Flu lockdowns.

Technology is going to be our prison walls.
Just wait until they managed to get rid of all money and you only have access to digital money.
If you become an enemy of the government they could really cancel you out.

Gee, how did cars move before all this electronic crap? Henry Ford is doing somersaults in his grave.

Classic example of over-engineering. “Gilding the lily” used to be the phrase.
