Only the US government could come up with an idea thus stupid. This not only won’t reduce accidents, but will cause many more.

Oh great, so now the slow ones will block the fast lane for
5 miles while passing the even slower ones, instead of just two like now. [eyeroll]
If they MUST do this, it should only be instituted on highways of three or more lanes in each direction (or better yet, not at all).

Ok, so it will save $1 billion dollars in fuel costs. How much will be lost by paying out over time and the extra time it will take to deliver goods?

I work in transportation (logistics) and this will kill the trucking industry. Expedite carriers such as Panther and guaranteed deliveries on less-than-truckload carriers (LTL) would go away, resulting in end customers getting shutdown due to not getting their product in a timely manner.
Also, an unintended consequence is that more product will be shipped in cargo vans and 12" straight trucks, in order to get around the regulations.
The Federal Government is out of control. We have two bureaucracies that deal with transportation. This is pure insanity.

I imagine there would be some necessary times a driver would need to exceed these limits. i say hell no.

What happens when the programmer puts the code in backwards and the bus can't go below 65 mph?

Maybe we can get Volkswagen to rig the device so it goes 25 mph faster after the government’s done testing it.

Now, here’s the problem, people; unelected bureaucrats writing law. How the F gave them legislative power? It’s not in the constitution. These unelected bureaucrat pigs need to be slapped down hard.
To: Olog-hai
It isn’t speed that kills, rather it is DIFFERENCE in speed that causes accidents. There will be chaos when more and more cars start darting around trying to get past the trucks.
