HR 6563 United States House · 118th Congress

No Kill Switches in Cars Act

The No Kill Switches in Cars Act (HR 6563) repeals Section 24220 of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, which had authorized the use of "kill switches" in vehicles to disable them if a driver was impaired by alcohol or drugs. This repeal removes the federal requirement for vehicle manufacturers to incorporate or allow such technology, directly affecting automotive safety regulations and manufacturers' compliance obligations. The bill eliminates a specific statutory provision without introducing new requirements, changing federal policy by withdrawing permission for kill switches in cars. As a procedural repeal, it focuses solely on removing an existing provision from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act.
