Speeding-limiting cars
 

The Governments Transport Advisors have said that speed-limiting devices should be fitted to cars on a voluntary basis, to help save lives and cut carbon emissions, according to a new report.

It appears the system works on GPS and automatically regulate your speed required on that particular road your driving on at the time. All we'll need now is to be able to program the car to where we're going, then let it get on with it whilst we have a kip in the back seat:rolleyes:

Cause more accidents, tail-backs and road rage than there is now thats why they haven't fitted them before now - limiters, not the kipping in the back seat :)

Were nearly there, got the technology in place and being used to keep you between the white line, brakes applied if you get too close to the car in front, got the sat nav, all you need is something to steer it :D

Re: Speeding-limiting cars
 

Still not going to improve driving standards. :mosher:

Re: Speeding-limiting cars

Do that and Jeremy Clarkson will have a hairy fit. :p

Re: Speeding-limiting cars
 

drive n old banger like me, no chance getting done speeding, problem solved, who needs technology?:D

Re: Speeding-limiting cars
 

Well in that case, why give us a choice? Manufacturers make cars to suit many peoples pockets, choice and circumstances.

Let's all just be given a choice of one car manufactured to Government specifications that no matter how luxurious only travels like any one else's,

never happen less, those who own the super doopers, pull the strings.

Re: Speeding-limiting cars
 

AND,

They never go through the voluntary channels they invent to restrict the rest of us,

Ah, I see, how naïve I was in my earlier post, in that case I'll go for the most powerful car I can afford and put two fingers up at such 'voluntary', schemes!

So basically you agree with me? I was using sarcasm what was your reason for repeating my point, (unless you thought it necessary to explain for the benefit of my Troll).

As mentioned, its being quoted as voluntary,

I'd love to see them try it, its just not a viable plan and shows just how out of touch in reality these muppets really are. They make so much money on insurance tax, car tax, VAT ( on sales and servicing etc) that premium cars are a total cash cow for them, to remove any desire or reason to drive a premium product would be fatal to teh UK economy.
