It's Un-American to the very core of the idea.
100% agree.
I think ultimately the goal is to eliminate private ownership of vehicles altogether, except for maybe special farming/sporting etc. permits.

The control freaks are the architects of this kind of stuff...and it’s really only the tip of the iceberg. Technology is neutral, but when this kind of stuff becomes mandatory it’s negative, because there’s never any end to control...it just keeps going and going until there will be little to no free-will remaining. All choices will be only a perception of choice...Coke or Pepsi.
There’s always been a tendency toward totalitarian control in human societies, but only now does the technology exist to really begin perfecting it.
Some of the plans include things like having everyone living in 300 sq ft (or less) “smart aPodments” clustered and compressed into mega-city complexes where nearly every detail of daily life is dictated and controlled and enforced by robot police.
And if you think that all sounds far-fetched, it’s all out there in the form of serious proposals (various corporate, government and academic publications) but with a positive spin as if it’s all ultimately wonderful ideas that are fully justified and will lead to some kind of bizarre utopia. And includes even farther out stuff like the genetic alteration of the species to create a more easily controlled humanoid. And any BS excuse will do...like “climate change”.

Solve climate change … make people smaller

Mini-apartments are the next big thing in U.S. cities
Construction will start soon on an experimental New York housing complex in Manhattan with 55 "micro-sized" apartments, from 250 to 370 square feet each. The prefabricated units, which will rent for $914 to $1,873 per month, aim to help alleviate the city's shortage of less-pricey studios and one-bedroom apartments. As more urban dwellers live alone, other U.S. cities are considering similar solutions.

And just as with the autonomous vehicle stuff, much of it is already being done.
I’m glad I won’t be around long enough to see it all come to fruition. And it will all come to fruition eventually, and God knows what else, because the great majority of sheeple will ultimately acquiesce to all of it.
