Proponents argue that it enhances road safety and reduces accidents by monitoring and correcting dangerous driving behaviors. Opponents argue that it infringes on personal privacy and could lead to government overreach and misuse of data.

No, and it should be illegal to track any vehicle without its owner's consent.

 @9VGR4J9from British Columbia  answered…4mos4MO

I would say for anyone caught violating traffic regulations to begin with. If they prove over a few years they can be trusted remove it. Otherwise if its a repeat offender hit them with a table.

 @9T6K963from Ontario  answered…5mos5MO

They should enforce this practice on individuals reported for reckless driving or with a history of traffic tickets.

 @9SLJBJVfrom British Columbia  answered…6mos6MO

Yes, but also for safety reasons. How many vehicles go missing and are never found.

 @9RZPX67from Alberta  answered…6mos6MO

no this is a major invasion of privacy, any government that introduces this should be voted into the ground

 @B2CMT6Q  from Montana  answered…4wks4W

This should only be enforced on individuals who have a history of violating traffic safety laws.

 @B29WGP9from Alberta  answered…4wks4W

Yes, but primarily for recovering lost vehicles and tracking vehicles involved in active investigations

 @B29H2J5from Ontario  answered…1mo1MO

Yes, but only for data collection; traffic violations should not be punished without a police officer witnessing the event in person.

Trump Pivots: "Pease Deal With Iran Now!"

Trump proposes a "Verified Nuclear Peace Agreement" with Iran, expressing preference for diplomacy over military action and calling for immediate negotiations.Despite advocating for diplomacy, Trump simultaneously issued an executive order reinstating his "maximum pressure" sanctions policy from his first administration.The sanctions campaign aims to completely halt Iran's oil exports, particularly focusing on exports to China, which currently receives about 1.7 million barrels per day.Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi responded by calling the maximum pressure strategy a "failed experience" while indicating openness to discussions about their nuclear program.The executive order includes reviewing and potentially rescinding existing sanctions waivers, including those related to the Chabahar port project operated by India.Iranian oil exports had previously dropped from 3 million barrels per day in 2018 to 420,000 barrels per day in December 2019 under Trump's first-term sanctions.Iran currently maintains a "shadow fleet" of oil tankers operating outside Western banking and insurance services to circumvent US restrictions.Oil markets showed limited reaction to Trump's announcement, with Brent crude dropping 1% as traders doubt the ability to completely block Iranian exports.Analysts suggest Iran could become a negotiating tool in US-China trade discussions, with China potentially willing to reduce Iranian oil imports as it modernizes its refining sector.Iranian analysts indicate Tehran would likely reject any agreement attempting to restrict their ballistic missile program, which they consider their primary deterrent.
