I really like this bit from the TV show Pantheon - kinda sorta talking about A1:
"Unfortunately,
I and the others like me
cannot be trusted with this power.
We are not ghosts.
We are not aliens.
We are not machines.
We are not gods.
We are you."

One thing that gets lost in these discussions is the fact that current speed limits on surface streets are already way TOO HIGH.
Limits set by the 85th %tile rule in which drivers to set their own speed limits, under the extremely misguided superstition that most naturally drive at safe speeds

This technology already exists and is widely used. It doesn't involve 'government surveillance' and would not allow ICE or any other government agency to stop individual cars.

Speed Limiters Now Mandatory in All New EU Cars
Intelligent Speed Assist (ISA) isn't an ironclad speeding prevention system, but could be just annoying enough to spark a backlash.

According to the New Yorker, Donald Trump and his family profited off the presidency by an estimated $4 billion in 2025 — mostly through shady crypto deals.
That amounts to $456,621 per hour.

The purpose of pointing out systems is to give us a concrete goal for dismantling them and putting something new in place.
Our solutions need to be based on an understanding of how people turn into monsters in the first place. Leaving the systems intact will create an endless supply of new monsters
