If you guys haven't seen the story, it's a little weird story that's going viral. Is European cars now must track drivers eye movement in the name of safety. You have a video on this. Do you have a clip on this? European cars now must track drivers eye movement in the name of safety. So imagine you're driving a car and there's a camera that's watching you to see if you're falling asleep or not. Or maybe you're on your phone and where's it going? And where's this report goes to them. It became mandatory on Tuesday, what? For citizens of the EU's 27 member states to allow their cars to track their movements using AI. The European Union's general safety regulation mandated advanced driver distraction warning systems that
track drivers body movements such as eye and head movements in every new vehicle sold after July 7. According to Access Newswire, this is a driver support system. Martin Cran, CEO and founder of Swedish AI company smart. I told the Daily Caller News Foundation in an interview, it's a lifesaving technology. It really helps to prevent accidents. It's probably going to be just like uh with the seat belt and the airbag. I Smart Eye is one of the leading suppliers of eye tracking and driver monitoring AI that is compliant and AD with ADW systems. This tracking quite has quite a high accuracy. So if you sit in your car and you're driving your car and the speedome and then you look at the speedometer then what happens is
that tracking realizes that this is the speedometer that you're looking at and then you're allowed to take your eyes away from the road for a certain time period. Let's say for example 2 seconds. You have a time that you can spend on different objects in your car. Cell phone use while driving is forbidden thing to do in most jurisdictions. Then it can warn immediately keep your eyes on the road. Basically, it's uh actually illegal to do that. He told the DCNF. And then if you, for example, spend time on the navigation display or on the radio, that's also allowed, but not for too long. Eventually, it will tell you to move your back attention on the road.
You have different distraction limits. They have a distraction limits on the speed. No one's going to call the authorities and no one's going to tell you and send along to the police or anything like that, but it's going to be different for different car makers. Tom, how I don't know about this. How do you feel about this? A lot of cars already have it. Mercedes already had it even on their lowest uh basic uh the Mercedes C's and the ones. Um they've had it and I think other manufacturers have had it and they call it dozing or tiredness warning or they go beep, you know, driver alertness warning. Mercedes will do that.
This doesn't bother you. So, well, no, but I think what they're doing is they're mandating what has been a safety feature on many different cars. And it doesn't really bother me because I think it is a safety feature. Now then, however, if it ever goes from warning to insurance, that's where it's going to go, guys. That's where it's going to go. We're going to go from warning to insurance data the same way now that you can plug the little sensor in to your car and it'll detect how often you're over the speed limit, how fast you break, how hard you break, how fast you accelerate, all of that to determine your crash risk so that you can be underrated. Do you for this? You think this is good?
I'm against the legislation, but I like the feature in more cars because like early tension on seat belts, the early braking or that, you know, the beep and your car hits the brakes a little bit that saves lives and I think those features are good. But what concerns me is the full loop here, Pat. This will go to law enforcement. This will ultimately go to insurance. And then it's going to be, well, wait a minute. If I have a good driving record, yet you think I've looked down too many times, you're going to rerate me. Now I got a problem with it. Well, that is gonna happen. I know. It's eventually going to lead into that. And by the way, if they're watching, do you think they're also listening?
Absolut 100%. Pat, I love that you brought that up. If you don't It started in the streets with the cameras. Now it's in your car. They're listen. And where are they sending that off? Tom, you made a great point. You know, they're sharing it with all their government agencies. to find out who you are. I get the s but that's how they sell you. They sell you with safety. It's in the street. It's in your car. It's in your house. It's over here. And next thing you know, it's going to be China. You walk around Pan if your face and they'll they'll grab your face and they'll charge you for a ticket. And they're having so many freaking problems over
there because it's you it's surveillance state to the tea. I don't like it because you don't know who the hell's taking this information and what they're doing. It going back to your point, the airport Tom, you know that face scan. You can deny that. That's not mandatory. Every single time I go to the airport and they I ask for that thing, I go, "I don't want that." They go, "Oh, okay. Then go around." You're willingly giving them this data every time. So, when it comes to this, no, Pat, this is just another way we're like, "No, no, no. It's for your crashing." And Jake made a good point for texting and driving or sleeping. That's the way they come in. And then guess what? They have
your face. They have everything and they're listening to every single thing that you say. I don't like it. I don't want the government in my freaking car, in my house, in the street, wherever the hell I am. I'm I'm I'm They're watching. So, let me ask you. Do you think it'll get to a point, so let's just say they're listening that if you go like this, they'll give you a red card and they'll car stop. Vinnie, did you hear? Take it. Take the car, suspend it, and pound it. I'm going to sell small baseball mitts for people who are driving. So, you can put it up in front of you like you're having a conference at the mound with the catcher and you don't want
or you mess with it. You just say, "Yeah, you know, like the Eddie Murphy, that one movie is a Yeah. What was that?" Moves the lips where you don't hear the words. Not Ed Eddie Morphy. It's somebody else that's doing it. Uh, he'd be working. It was I'm trying to see which one it was. You invent some crazy language while you're driving. What's he saying? Adam, I really don't want to come to you with this story cuz you have no moral authority on this. Yeah. You don't even know what a car I was just going to say, Pat. I was just going to say this ain't my story. I'm going to let the car experts debate
this. You guys got this. This is this isn't for you, buddy. You're going to be okay. This ain't for me. Let me give you guys when an Uber story comes up, you know who to call. Okay, let me tell you this story. It's one of the best stories. Parents, this is very important for you and I to think about. There's a reason why I keep talking about the future looks bright. In 2013, they did a study at Emory University. Guy named Brian Diaz and Carrie Wrestler did a study identifying to see if we pass our fears down to our kids without us even knowing about it. So they took a group of male mice and they gave it actophenone and every time this is cherry blossom
you know smell. Every time they released this smell they would zap them with this pain like whoa what was that? Five minutes later they released that smell again. Zap them again the pain. Whoa. Five minutes. And they kept doing this with only male mice they were experimenting on. Eventually, they did this for a few days, maybe a week, week and a half. Then they took those same mice that now have tied fear to acettophenol, the smell, cherry blossom, then they put it in a room for them to mate with female mice. Okay? So then they mate, okay? So these guys now have kids. Then they take the mice, the male mice, the father, away from the baby.
Okay? Then they take the babies and they put other female mice and they mate. Okay? Then they put the grandkids in a complete different thing. So you with me so far? The grandfather fears the smell of a cedtoino and he got zapped. He got zapped every time. Gr then his kids and then his grandkids. The grandkids have never met grandfather before. Got you. They put him in a place and all of a sudden they sprayed the cherry blossom. These grandkids were frightened. frightened because that fear from the grandfather had passed down to the grand genetically and they've never been zapped
and they've never been zapped. Holy wow. So, what does this mean? Yesterday, we're at the beach and I'm watching how happy Brooklyn is. And in my mind, you know, you're running all these issues in your mind. You're trying to solve all these problems. You're kind of overwhelmed with all this stuff that's going on. And I'm looking at her and she's just happy. Mhm. She's happy playing in the sand. She's happy running around. Daddy, take me. Take me. Take me in the water. It's cold. No, no, don't put me in the water. Daddy, daddy, take me. And then you start realizing we are all born with believing the future looks bright. But if we're not too careful, we can pass
down that fear to our own kids that can pass it down to their grandkids. When people say, "Why do you believe the future looks bright?" I just do. I believe the future looks bright at the highest level.
