NTSB in favor of new speed limiting system
LL media ^ | 10/10/2022 | LL media

The National Transportation Safety Board is recommending new speed limiter technology.

According to a CNN Business report, an electric car equipped with this intelligence speed assistance program knows the speed limit wherever the particular car is traveling.

A video demonstrating this speed-limiting program on the CNN Business website showed New York City Deputy Mayor of Operations Meera Joshi is driving a vehicle equipped with the program.

While demonstrating the speed limiter program Joshi, formerly FMCSA’s acting administrator, said, “I’m pressing the pedal, but you see actually the number is going down.”

We need this technology applied to taxation, gov’t spending and Inflation, not vehicles.

Of course the cities will never go for it, because there goes their biggest source of revenue.

Literally only purpose for this is to control people and the added bonus of killing more.

A horribly bad idea, though rare I absolutely have been in situations where speeding up prevented an accident.

Plus this technology is grunted to always have failures, All technology does. Just imagine the damage from cars suddenly stopping on freeways and all the accidents to follow.

Then, the car says,

“Warning citizen. You have traveled over your allotted monthly mileage limit set by your government. This car will proceed back to your domicile utilizing the most direct routing. A surcharge of $25/mile over your monthly allotment will be drafted from your account. Expect a visit from the Transportation Department soon to rectify your travel behavior.”

This is about safety the same way CoupFlu policy is about public health.
