Should the government enforce mandatory GPS tracking in all vehicles to monitor driving behavior and improve road safety?

Mandatory GPS tracking involves using GPS technology in all vehicles to monitor driving behavior and improve road safety. Proponents argue that it enhances road safety and reduces accidents by monitoring and correcting dangerous driving behaviors. Opponents argue that it infringes on personal privacy and could lead to government overreach and misuse of data.

We need some freedom and free choice. Big brother does not need to watch our every movement. Nanny state, no thank you

 @ISIDEWITHDiscuss this answer...2yrs2Y

Yes

 @9ZD66ZNdisagreed…1yr1Y

People should have freedom of movement without government tracking, it's a gross infringement of personal privacy.

 @9NLMVGZdisagreed…2yrs2Y

Government's do not need this amount of access to people's private lives as it could become an abuse of power

 @9NKQ3ZLIndependentdisagreed…2yrs2Y

We are a free country and citizens have a right to privacy and the government shouldn’t have the right to track our driving habits and whereabouts at all times

Where is the freedom of the Irish people in this scenario? All this will serve to do is increase revenue from fines

No, and we should aim for self-driving cars that communicate with other cars and sensors along all roads, to avoid traffic, congestions, crashes, speeding and other risks humans pose on the road due to either negligence of the rules, or simple human error

 @9ZTCVHNanswered…1yr1Y

Yes, but only if these GPS systems are heavily encrypted and can only be accessed by the government/ trusted companies.

 @9NM6NWFanswered…2yrs2Y

Yes in cases where people have displayed reckless driving behaviour

 @9NBJ78YSocial Democratsanswered…2yrs2Y

In cases where bad driving has been detected before

 @9N9X88Canswered…2yrs2Y

yes, for those who comment an offence or are found breaking rules or speeding

 @9N6WBSJanswered…2yrs2Y

yes, but only for people with criminal histories to do with driving offences, violence or trafficing
