Canada isn't trying to tell you anything. It's just warning Canadians that US cops are corrupt as fuck, and how to reduce the chances something bad could happen to them when travelling in the US.

...except his salary gets paid whether or not they seize your money, so where exactly is the advantage to him unless it's money he receives on top of his salary?
Except it's a factor for everyone else when one of those non-signaling dipshits decides he's faster than my 2000 lbs machine. Bikers slow down traffic because everyone is afraid to be anywhere near them. They're unpredictable, can change direction very quickly, and almost never signal intent. Fuck cyclists.
"I would love that feature on my car, when taking a long drive. It would prevent driving exhaustion."
If you're paying due attention to the road, no it wouldn't. What this does is provide you with a sense of security just false enough that you might *stop* paying attention at the wrong times.
Science is not the answer you arrive at, it's the path you take to get there.
Anything which could potentially educate people must be against moral standards!

Jesus christ slashdot, get your shit together.
...we start talking about how disadvantaged women are in tech, and how we need to throw money at the problem or something?

Is that you EA?!
Don't you be talking about Dong's Schlong. That's just wrong
..which is precisely why nobody has been nuked since Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Fear of this nuclear arsenal and the widespread carnage it would cause if X and Y started to throw them at each other is a very real deterrent. It's not at all pathetic to think that if everyone has a doomsday weapon, that everyone will be a lot more reluctant to push the button. Everyone loses such a war, and everyone knows it. The only way you don't lose is if the person you're targeting doesn't have them.
