Found this over at slashdot.org...makes high-tech sense since RFIDs are supposed to be cheap (and with Wal-Mart trying to put them into everything):

"In section 601.507 of Texas HB 2893, the Texas Legislature is considering replacing all vehicle inspection stickers with RFID tags. The legislation also makes provision for the government to use the devices for insurance enforcement. The bill contains limited privacy provisions, but does not seem to exclude other law enforcement usage."

But what other instursions will they think up with these on the cars??
