EyeGage is currently collecting data, hoping to improve the accuracy of its software across different demographics. These examples of technology that could prevent drunk driving still need refinement before they're ready for mass adoption. Federal regulators have several years to determine what kind of technology should actually be required under the new vehicle standard — three years by default, with the possibility of an extension if they need it.
And automakers would then have two more years to actually implement the standard in their vehicles. Congress didn't specify what kind of technology cars should include, just that it has to be able to accurately detect drunk driving, and that it has to be "passive. That means it can't involve a driver having to blow into a device, like the ignition interlock devices currently installed in the vehicles of some convicted drunk drivers.
In theory, a sober driver wouldn't notice the system at all — they'd just get in their vehicle and drive like normal, without doing anything in particular. Still, there could be a backlash to this technology. Historically, Americans have resisted efforts to install seat belt interlocks which would not allow a vehicle to be started if vehicle occupants aren't using their seat belts and speed limiters which prevent vehicles from driving dangerously fast.
And the ACLU has already raised privacy concerns about both camera-based and physiology-based systems. But safety advocates are ecstatic about the new federal push for drunk driving technology. Mothers Against Drunk Driving called the measure included in the infrastructure law "monumental.

Those qualities make Kill or Be Kind a genuine artistic breakthrough for Fish. The result is an album on which each song is distinct, but the complete work hangs together as a coherent, entirely satisfying statement.
I think you hear a lot of that nuance on the record, songs that have a pop sensibility to them, hooks that really pull you in. See the Coverage Map for more details.
