Make Cars That Can’t Speed
Speeding is the cause of a high percentage of automobile accidents. Many cars can do 200mph or more, but the speed limit is 65mph. So what is the purpose of having a car that goes that fast. You are only breaking the law if you do.
Some people are proposing the idea of installing devices in cars that limits their speed. Today’s forum thread is at motortrend.com where they discuss this idea:
As you would guess, a forum for car lovers is not for this idea at all. In my opinion, the Motor Trend members don’t give any compelling arguments why a car’s speed should not be limited, but for some reason I tend to agree with them anyways.
I can’t imagine a high performance sports car being limited to 65 or 75 mph. It would be like the jockeys in the Kentucky Derby keeping the horses at a trot. Where’s the excitement in that?
