Jerry 976 Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Big Brother wants more control over us, vehicles with GPS speed control so you can't speed in your vehicle anymore. They're testing it in New York with certain city owned vehicles. Click the link below there's a video if you want you watch it. https://www.wtae.com/article/ntsb-push-enforce-speed-limits-across-country/41581515 The National Transportation Safety Board has a new recommendation for automakers that could "force" new cars to slow down. Federal data shows more than 20,000 deaths on our roads in the first half of the year. This new effort is predicted to save tens of thousands of lives each year. The NTSB is calling on the federal government to start incentivizing carmakers to put smart speed limiter systems in new cars. The speed limiter program works through telematics. Stored data on local speed limits is cross-referenced with a car’s GPS position. Software in the vehicles gives the driver an alarm or simply just cuts off the accelerator when you reach the speed limit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DriftBusta Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Fuck all that shit. My insurance company said I could get a discount if I installed this big brother bullshit on my truck to monitor my driving habits. What happens when they actually monitor my driving habits? My rates go up? Yeah go fuck yourselves insurance companies, and big brother bullshit. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
