    Personally, and this is just me I suppose, I’m in favor of laws that serve to keep people safe

      Then do something worthwhile and effective instead of pointless shit that just pisses people off. You have limited political capital and this isn’t worth it. Especially when it ends up affecting folks on the other side of the country.

      I don’t see how this will make anyone safer. It’s going to be training people to ignore honking.

          I’m in a rental right now with blind spot detection, and at first I thought it was pretty decent. Recently though, I’ve realized that 75% of the time it dings at me when I signal to change lanes, there’s literally not a single object within 50ft of me on that side. It’s just meaningless noise to ignore the majority of the time.

            It’s your car model. Plenty of them are configurable, take relative speeds into account, and quite accurate.
