100 Euros on the price of the car to save a life. Might be worth it, especially if it's yours.

I think we should implant tracking chips in everyone at birth as well as tattooing bar-codes on everyone for easy identification.
Would stop crime dead in it's tracks!

Compulsory wearing of crash helmets, neck guard, racing seat belts and fitting of roll cage is more likely to rate lives, and won't be monitoring your every move by big brother state dictatorship.....

Tommy Monk wrote:Yes that's why I advocate the wearing/using of protective equipment I mentioned earlier.
Much more likely to save lives as it will help prevent the injuries in The first place.
And won't be monitoring my every move and sending to big brother state dictatorship.

What was voted through was specifically amended to cover use only for emergency services.

So let's rip out airbags from cars so that they are cheaper. Would that your stance?

Sillyness.  No-one would object to airbags - they don't impinge on your privacy do they? And these chips can be bought, if you make the choice.  Try looking that word up in the dictionary: c-h-o-i-c-e.  It doesn't appear to be in the socialist big brother vocabulary, except maybe as an offensive term.

Well if it's my car and I'm driving it then it's my choice if I want this or not, as it's my life and it's up to me!

Exactly what I was saying.....


I won't be having one in my car and that is my choice.

Of course all these other things that it has been designed to be used for won't ever be used.......!






What a twat!



Thought you'd embarrassed yourself enough this weekend already!?

Try reading up on what it does and not on what the Daily Mail tells you.

Choice!!! Yes. Can you buy a new car with no airbags in it? Are they compulsory?

D'uhhh - so are wheels!  Do they track your whereabouts or infringe on your privacy?

Tommy Monk wrote:Well dodge, if you are going to talk shit what do you expect?
The EU's own web page says it could be used for all the things listed.
And all you're doing is dancing on the head of a pin about the use/meaning of the word 'could'
Do you seriously think that all these other things that it has been designed to be used for won't ever be used.......???!!!

But tight is really about tracking you, movements and sendidg to a big brother dictatorship state.



And mobile phones are not compulsory, you can choose to have one or not, and choose to have a registered contract in your name or unregistered pay as you go, You can also choose to turn it on or off for any amount of time you want, and also choose to leave it at home or anywhere else whenever you want.



And shady, unfortunately yes still posting shit.


The prognosis is not good....!

No, it's not exactly what you were saying. You are saying it tracks your every movement when it doesn't
Yeah, it could eventually be used for insurance and the police and you can bet that the government would back that because you may get your car back quicker and your insurance cost may even go down.
Sorry, Tommy, if you buy a new car after the implementation date then you will be having one in your car. Unless of course Dave can include an opt out under his reforms for the EU
