the day is coming where intelligent vehicles check themselves for
speeding and call in the report to the police that send you a ticket.

you were on X road the speed limit is 55, you were doing 75. pay this
150 buck ticket congrats no points if paid promptly.

tampering with the device will render the vehicle undrivable.

its for our safety


While I do not like the idea , it would be good if they could be set so that
if you are going over say 80 to 90 mph they would shut down the car and
would need a reset to get them going again. Should cut down some of the
high speed chases.

I have seen some advertisements on TV about a removiable device that checks
your driving and the insurance company sets your rate by your driving
habits.
