This could kill a lot of people!
Sometimes one must step on the gas and go as fast as possible to save yourself, regardless of speed limit.
The basis for all vehicle navigation is mapping systems and how accurate those systems are is a question that requires a great deal of reflection on whether you want to trust your life to a machine that was programmed by humans. This is the latest victim of bad of GPS “data”:
I have no idea whether the family’s claims are accurate or not. But I can tell you that I’m aware of three significant route errors in all of the big name mapping systems within 150 miles. Following the map into those errors will result in you driving off a cliff. 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”.

Gotta get to the hospital pronto.
Oops, must go speed limit.
Sometimes when lasting someone you need to speed up in order to get around them before hitting oncoming traffic, or some barrier like a corner or something. Apparently the car won’t allow a person to do so, so accidents Wil. Happen as a result.
Well 55 saves lives and better for planet saves gas /s
Back in olden times (1980s), some idiot thought that mandating speedometers that could only go up to 85 mph would reduce accidents and save lives. The theory was that it would eliminate the thrill factor of seeing 3-digit speeds on the speedometer.
I owned one such car. I can assure you, it didn’t work.
What will police departments do for revenue once the revenue from speeding tickets is eliminated?
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.
“Iām 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.
why make cars that go faster than the speed limit then???
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 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,in an emergency you’re screwed.š
