You can’t be serious and you are a danger to others regardless, good fucking christ.
Then… what? You’re coming back days later to “no u” a comment that lays out pretty explicitly an exception to what you’re presenting as a blanket rule. Do you… disagree? Are you just inexperienced enough with driving to not have had that happen to you? Adjusting to driving conditions takes time - even if it’s only for 6-7 seconds per incident, that’s still time where you’re forced to follow far too close to another car without an ability to prevent the situation from arising. You seem like you don’t understand that, sometimes, other people can be responsible for the situations you are put in through no fault of your own. Or, you’re a sith. A driving sith.

Legit reason: Chain of evidence. They can’t bring in an outside expert that hasn’t been vetted, and they especially can’t use equipment that has been outside their control and hasn’t been verified intact. Damn near zero youtubers would pass NSA vetting, which clearly rules out their equipment as well. The fact this is such an outdated tech means there’s no verified-trustworthy experts within or contracted with the government that can work with it, so they really are stuck not being able to do anything with this tech in house. Digital obsolescence is a very serious problem, especially in government (why do you think they pay so much for COBOL developers?) and this truly is a nontrivial issue to overcome.
… Which is the bureaucratic legitimacy behind this claim. Obviously they could fix this, I mean duh. But it’s an actual hassle, and they see no benefit to going through it to reveal something they don’t see a point to revealing. So they just hide behind the legit issues, shrug, and know we can’t do anything about it.
