    “Guys, we just have to implement a surveillance state to cut down on traffic violations!”

    You see how dumb that sounds when you rephrase it?

      Your car and your phone are already surveilling you. You’re just arguing against automatic traffic fines at this point

      I’m still for it. Nobody who’s behind the wheel of a car should have any privacy, since the tiniest mistake or moment of inattention on their part can kill or maim multiple other people in a fraction of a second.

        Oh yes, because cameras are so very selective and only watch when a car is driving by and only watch the person operating the vehicle.

        Everyone ELSE should not be expected to sacrifice their privacy is the point you’re entirely missing.

          And your imaginary privacy isn’t worth my life of the lives of the people I care about is the point you’re deliberately ignoring.
