Car Breathalyzers For Everyone

Will all autos some day have breathalyzers? - USATODAY.com

Widespread use of ignition interlock devices that won't allow a car to be started if a driver has had too much alcohol, once considered radical, no longer seems out of the question. Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) gives a qualified endorsement to the idea. New York state legislators are considering requiring the devices on all cars and trucks by 2009. And automakers, already close to offering the devices as optional equipment on all Volvo and Saab models in Sweden, are considering whether to bring the technology here.

I'm sure they will
You're to stupid to check your tire pressure, so low pressure sensors are now mandatory.
You're to stupid to fasten your seat belt, so an annoying alarm is mandatory.
You're to stupid to turn on your windshield wipers when it rains, so rain sensing wipers are available.
You're to stupid to turn on you headlights so daytime running lights are available
You're so stupid you've accepted airbags as a mandatory safety device event though they kill people.

All it takes is a few well placed campaign contributions by a breathalyzer manufacturer and they will be mandated for new cars.

MADD want prohibition back as law. They won't come out and say so, because folks would push back. But that's their agenda. Incrementalism anyone?
