Re: Speeding-limiting cars

These are not strictly the points I put forward Entwisi.

Don't think it will lead to more drivers 'switching off' if that is what they do now anyway.

Even in low powered cars ... still boy racers take off more quickly than considerate drivers and yes they do not/care not take note of the conditions of the road. Was talking mainly in 30 zones.

Agree re. extra education for drivers .. meant that there has been many advertising campaigns in the past to avert speeding which may have had some effect for those who wish to take note, but not wholly successful.

Have been in situations on the motorway myself in which you describe .. was just concentrating on the overtaking. Does seem to me that even though there will be an over-ride button .. would have to be exceptionally sharp to operate it.

Like I said, not convinced myself .. just good to get other people's opinions.

Will not reply to your comment re. Hyndburn Hunks... LOL.
