The same way they require following the written law. If automakers fail to meet standards they cannot sell cars to dealers. Then consumers can only choice to spend extra to import the cars. They could also refuse to certify cars for emissions, allowing owners to be arrested.
So you think the government has a clear and explicit right to dictate the market, and to control with force the producers within the market?

Once again, force is your baby.

Survey's have shown based on responders people would be willing to pay up to 10.00 a gallon for gas before ditching their SUV.
Some will, surely. Many people actually have a USE for an SUV, so if the value of that use is worth 10.00per gallon, they have to make that choice, not your beloved gubbmint.

While that might not hurt the doctors wife much what about retail workers or teachers? Should they have to suffer just to protect the rights of the wealthy to drive V12 engines?
How are they suffering?

Do you think the pauper has equal use for a helicopter as does a multi-business owner spanning multiple states?
