    So I’ll have reduced millage/charge and extra weight for carrying around this surveillance technology for the government and whose sole benefit will be the government?

    Will I be compensated for this burden? No?

    Would I be penalized for removing it from my car on my own?

    What happens if it “breaks”? Will I be expected to fork over my own money to repair/replace the government’s surveilance device? Logically speaking, burdening the car’s operating with a regulatory requirement like this could constitute a taking. Then again, it could be a logical extension of Congress’s taxing and spending power, but it probably isn’t without a strict mandate from Congress to have those devices.
