The industry built up around cars and the government itself make too much money to want to stop people driving completely. Road tax, fuel duty, insurance, MOT and servicing costs. And remember, all of the car makers, dealerships used car salesmen and insurance companies all pay vast amounts of tax to the government on their slice of the car pie. Add to this list everyone who has to commute to work and then pays massive amounts of tax and national insurance to the government on what they earn.

My new Mazda I’ve had for 5 weeks is fitted with Intelligent Speed Assistance (ISA). Driving on a 60mph road and getting continuous audio chimes because the system has picked a 20mph sign on a side road is a major distraction. I turn off my audio warning all the time as identifying the wrong speed limit sign or failing to pick up the correct limit happens regularly. The Mazda manual encourages you not to turn off the speed audio warnings as it turns off all the other audio warnings. Unfortunately you have too as it regularly identifies the wrong limit. If cars were forced to slow down I can see accidents happening and a lot of road rage.

Here’s my comment for what it’s worth. Automatic speed limiters are a bad idea for the reasons you outlined in this video. I use my manual speed limiter or cruse control everywhere though and for this reason never speed anywhere. It’s great fun driving past the speed van or police officer with a speed gun at exactly the published speed limit.

My car has it now, you can switch it on or off in cruise but it recognises speed signs and adjusts the speed automatically - you can then tweek it up or down if you wish to whatever you want - You have to do that again if you want to alter it at whatever the next speed limit change is (ie 30-40 etc). It works really well, I'm sure its saved me many a ticket, its so easy to creep over a 20 limit.
@house891473 ай бұрын
Me too, I drive with my limiter on most of the time and do over 20k per year. It's saved me several times (a year) on motorways and on a few roads where they like to hide. The best time was the idiot desperate to overtake me while I was doing the speed limit in Birmingham. Came round a blind corner and there was a police officer with a camera right in front of us. From that point the guy behind me was perfectly happy doing the speed limit. I also loved the local volunteers who tracked me down the entire road when I was locked to exactly 40, I gave them a wave as they grimmised at me, my wife and cousin were both driving behind me and had caught me up so I saved them tickets too. At the end of the day you can put your foot hard on the accelerator if you need to get out of the way of someone, but the rest of the time it's nice to know you're not going to be funding more cameras and getting stealth taxed.

I have this system on my 2 yr old car but permanently switched to just flash a speed limit sign on the dash , problem is that it is consistently wrong , journey through mid wales the car insisting it was 20mph for 20 miles of 60 mph road after we left a village . Randomly reading speed limits from side roads and the back of european lorries , if the new systems are not better then cars randomly slowing down will be interesting for following cars. This has been mandated by the eu , manufacturers have to fit them or cannot sell cars in europe .

Fully automated speed limiters based on current technology are dangerous. Not a mile from my house there is a bypass rated at 60 mph. However, as I approach the bypass 9, times of 10, my car fails to report the change in speed so I get an alarm telling me I am exceeding 30 mph when I am actually doing 40 in a 60. Where this gets dangerous is when roads of different speeds pass over each other such as the A46 East of Bath. The road is a 50 mph limit but as the A46 passes under the A46, which is a 30 mph junction, the system gets confused. For a short distance my car is confused and reports it should be doing 30 whilst in a 50. If the brakes were applied automatically, the sudden braking for no apparent reason would at some point result in me getting rear-ended.

With auto shutdown technology that informs the police and locks you in your car if you go outside your area or otherwise break the rules, and if you can't see it coming, then you really need to wake up. 1984 came 40 years late, but it's here, my friend, and the answer is dont buy a new car or an electric car, and it won't happen. Wake up and realise that we are paying for and sleepwalking into our own slaughter.

Facetious or not, your idea won't work, the system requires data from those and from the ABS system to determine road speed, blocking them returns a 'null' value which international triggers a vehicle error and prevents the car fron going anywhere, for safety reasons of course. Simply blocking/obstructing these things stops the vehicle from moving any further. The way to prevent them is electronic avoidance by recoding the software to not look at them and to "forget" these things need checking and /or monitoring if checked initially. Obfuscation will never work.

Good! I drive in London with lots of 20mph speed limits - actually rephrase that and its the real problem - lots of 20/30/20/40/20 speed limits that are clearly intended to catch you out by their variation. Going just a couple of mph over the speed limit at 20 is very easy to do, a fine is one thing but points are really harsh in this situation. So, I love that the car will automatically change my speed to the prevailing limit. Why on earth would I want to knowingly drive over the limit?? Embrace it, drive within the law and nothing to grizzle about.

@@ireallylovegod Not true - There is 100% speed control available to the driver. My current car does what you say, ie if it spots a sign by the side of the road it sometimes amends the speed to that, up or down - but it is overridden by using brakes or throttle immediately. The new version (version 2 ) is controlled using GPS, Road Signs, and internal mapping - however, it is completely overridable. See here: "The new speed limit software, also called Intelligent Speed Assistance (ISA), is a system designed to automatically regulate a car's speed based on the posted limit. Here's a breakdown of how it works: Using a combination of technologies: GPS data: The car's GPS system tracks its location and identifies the road it's on. Speed sign recognition cameras: Cameras mounted on the car scan for speed limit signs along the road. Sat-nav (satellite navigation): The car's navigation system can also provide stored speed limit information for specific roads. By comparing this information, the ISA system can determine the current speed limit. Enforcing the speed limit: If the car goes above the limit, the ISA can intervene in a couple of ways (depending on the manufacturer's choice): Warnings: The system might give audible or visual warnings like beeps or flashing lights on the dashboard. Engine power restriction: In some cases, the ISA can limit engine power to gradually reduce the car's speed down to the legal limit. It won't slam on the brakes but instead make it harder to accelerate. Driver override: Drivers typically have the option to override the ISA by pressing firmly on the accelerator pedal. This deactivates the system for that journey, but it usually resets upon restarting the car. Important to note: ISA is meant to be an assistant, not an autonomous driving system. The ultimate responsibility for following the speed limit lies with the driver. While some systems may restrict engine power, they are not designed to bring the car to a complete stop. This technology is being implemented with the aim of improving road safety by reducing speeding violations. In short, its safer and quite frankly will stop you having to peer at your speedo constantly, or if you are a chav, you can just floor it everywhere as normal

Would you accept always having to be in handcuffs when in public, just so that you can't commit a POTENTIAL crime?
