1. That’s not a ‘governor.’

2. Cars already have audible and visual signals that you’ve exceeded the posted speed limit.

The ‘speed governor’ had been previously, and correctly, described as a “...device that would make it physically impossible for vehicles to go 10 miles per hour over the posted speed limits.”

I rented a 2024 Chevy SUV recently, and it squawked at me the entire time. I couldn’t turn it off. It was part of their “Adaptive Cruise Control.”
