minus-squareJustin@lemmy.jlh.namelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·edit-21 hour agoThe article doesn’t say that the NHTSA asked Newsom to veto, just that they were working on a similar regulation. It sounded like the car companies just wanted him to veto it so they could keep reckless drivers as a customer base. The proposed regulation only kicks in at 10 mph over the speed limit (ie reckless driving and deadly to pedestrians)
