The NYT article linked is better: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.nytimes.com&#x2F;2024&#x2F;03&#x2F;11&#x2F;technology&#x2F;carmakers-driver-tracking-insurance.html?unlocked_article_code=1.cE0.jN6D.nfeyIYUoly5W&amp;smid=url-share" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.nytimes.com&#x2F;2024&#x2F;03&#x2F;11&#x2F;technology&#x2F;carmakers-driv...</a><p>Also, link to request your LexisNexis report: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;consumer.risk.lexisnexis.com&#x2F;consumer" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;consumer.risk.lexisnexis.com&#x2F;consumer</a><p>Manufacturers named (also logos [0])<p><pre><code> - G.M. &quot;OnStar Smart Driver&quot; - Honda - Kia - Hyundai - Subaru - Mitsubishi </code></pre> &gt;&gt; <i>But a grotesquely corrupt Congress means federal inquiries will likely go nowhere (also keep in mind looming Supreme Court rulings are poised to erode federal regulatory authority further).
