Yes, it says it’s false. Here’s the pertinent line:

identifies whether they may be impaired and prevents or limits motor vehicle operation “if an impairment is detected.”

That’s called a killswitch.

On the law itself, it’s Section 24220 - b - 1 - a - ii AND 24220 - b - 1 - b - ii

Just a reminder that fact checkers blatantly lie, and will even tell you they’re lying. It takes like two minutes to fact check laws like this.

    But the claim by “Jailbait” singer Ted Nugent being refuted is:

    The device allows the government, the police, and car makers to disable your car from the comfort of their offices.

    That’s different than an impairment-detection system. The section you cited doesn’t allow Leslie Knope to disable your car remotely.
