Default No More Speeding?

Anyone else heard of this? It'll never happen, cities and counties would lose way too much money if they couldn't harass people going 3 miles over the limit...

Even if they do it, its going to be decades before they start getting put in new cars. I'm sure it would cost a fortune too. Something like that would probally kill the sports car industry anyways.

now that u really think of it.
it could happen
right now cars like the new accord with the auto pilot that was posted before is just the start. soon the cars will start comminicating with each other to prevent accidents and there would be no point for people to even drive there cars.

If they did, people would find a way to disable it. Then I would follow suit..

they've been talking about implimention something like this into OBDIII for years. But then they were saying that if you speed, you'd just get a ticket in the mail or something.
