I obey speed limits pretty carefully. But there have been a couple times where I needed to exceed the speed limits and run a couple of red lights to save someone’s life.

I guess NTSB would have killed them.

I have submitted corrections to all of the mapping companies for those three errors annually, one of them for going back over 10 years. None of them have been “fixed”.

Having dealt with the same situation, I'm convinced that the map companies don't fix anything in order to protect themselves legally. They instead put the liability on the companies that drive around mapping routes.

My GPS regularly thinks I'm driving at highways speeds along a parallel street through a residential neighborhood. A GPS-based limiter will fail spectacularly, slowing highway traffic down to 25 mph on major highways.

“I’m pressing the pedal, but you see actually the number is going down.”

Should work out great when you need to accelerate and maneuver to avoid a collision.

“And by the way, we know you drove your car to that Trump Rally, you probably had something to do with J6.”

Or, if you didn’t, we know that you wanted to.

So lock you up anyway.

Aluminum foil over the antenna should fix that.

Probably an inertial backup when GPS is unavailable.

If the fascists can slow down a car, they can stop it or even drive it where they want. It would also be easy to limit where you can drive keeping you out of Chappaqua for example

“I guess that a “speed signal code” would be sent out for the road, “

Nav systems are enc8ded with speed limits.

I have seen on “Newsy” news clips on Pluto tv some propaganda from the NTSB many times this past week asking to have cars with device to detect alcohol citing drunk driving accidents.

This is another way for the democrats to remote shutdown our cars. They want to track you like the cell phones do.

So if the navigation system is programmed for a local speed limit with the car using the navigation system to control the car’s speed, who gets the ticket if the speed limited changes and the car Mfg has not updated the car in a timely manner? Brave new world coming...
