I am fully in support of making cars or mopeds or all travel safer.

The US government and state governments are openly hostile to our residents and currently implementing massive mechanisms to track and control our population including our immigrant communities, women who need access to birth control, LGBTQ communities .

The government wanting a system that requires GPS and speed information to allow law enforcement to remotely control the movement of undesirable activities is the obvious goal here.

Cars are the leading cause of death of children in the US. More than cancer. Maybe you're right, I don't know, but it's not the "obvious goal".

Cars are also indirectly a huge cause of early death due to health problems caused by sedentary lifestyle.

I agree with you but addressing that wouldn't be a goal of this particular policy.
