Loading ...US Bill Would Prevent Chinese Connected Cars In Canada From Entering United States
“Vehicles today can collect and transmit massive amounts of data – geolocation of drivers, mapping of critical infrastructure, full-motion video, and more…”
U.S. Representative Haley Stevens and Senator Elissa Slotkin, both Democrats, announced the Protecting America from Chinese Cars Act last week at a conference in Michigan. The bill would prohibit connected vehicles from China and other “adversarial nations” from entering the United States, including vehicles made or designed in China, as well as vehicles made by a Chinese company or an entity more than 15 percent owned by Chinese companies, according to a May 28 press release from Stevens’s office.
It would also establish a process for vehicle manufacturers to apply for specific authorization to allow otherwise prohibited vehicles to enter the United States. Authorization would only be granted under “strict conditions, with both transparency and congressional oversight.”
I can’t see the US passing such a bill because TESLA already does all (or most) of the items deemed a problem……and they won’t want to shut down Tesla!
