IÂ’m parking this here on Luxon rap sheet even though the planning prob started under previous regime. I almost expected the pro technology Nats to front this but not so soon.
Hate to be right on this one but boom here it comes, reported on ONE news the digital driver licence app theyÂ’re looking for beta test volunteers.
Right at same time the banks are making it easy for you to send money straight to someone elseÂ’s account via your phone. That will be convenient for the app to auto ticket and fine you with instant payment.
And also on same timeline we have nationwide emergency access via Starlink.
The fakebook article comments are tragic so many people think they will get away with refusing to comply. Interesting implications if you have to pass your phone unlocked to cop for him to view.
No doubt insurance companies will be quick to follow and force you to instal an app that checks your licence 24/7 and monitors g force speeds etc.
It will be sold as stopping unsafe drivers being on road (wasnÂ’t the last licence law change promising that)
40 years on from 1984 novel and we prob surpassed the predictions.
