flag A 2021 law requiring new cars to detect drunk driving remains unenforced, with rules delayed until at least 2027.

flag A federal law requiring new cars to have passive impairment-detection technology to prevent drunk driving remains unimplemented despite surviving a recent funding challenge. flag Passed in 2021 and inspired by a 2019 crash that killed five family members, the law mandates systems like breath sensors or eye-tracking to stop vehicles when drivers are impaired. flag While supported by safety advocates and the alcohol industry, who say the tech is passive and doesn’t involve data sharing, opposition persists over concerns about false positives, reliability, and potential safety risks. flag The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is still evaluating technologies, with final rules expected no sooner than 2027.
