    These laws seem ripe for exploitation by contrarian little shits who hate this bullshit and have nothing to lose if they get sued. Amtrak is in Texas – does it count if you’re driving them to the station? What if you go off-road? Plus, if I get in my car with someone, what’s to stop me and my abortion-seeking friend from driving through the town without stopping? How would anyone have cause to suspect me? If I get pulled over somehow, then this law can’t apply, right? It’s specifically private citizens.

    Since it relies on people suing you, I feel like it leaves a lot of avenues open for someone with the right resources to fight in court.
