I have been thinking about getting a truck which is old. No GPS, none of this crap. Just a truck with an engine and easy to work on.

Can I set it to the speed limit + 9?

I hear the highway patrol say “9 your fine, 10 you’re mine”

Piece of gorilla tape could fix that camera right up.

If you want to go slow just buy some faggy car like a Prius or Honda CR_V (crap vehicle). They must have speed limiters in them already because every d*mned one I get stuck behind is doing 10 below the speed limit. A**Holes!

Drive 65Mph (the speed limit) on most of the freeways in SOCAL and you’ll get run over. Virtually no one goes under 70-75.

"There's a plan for speed restrictions to be beamed to your car's computer systems and controlled from there

How many dead journalists will this result in? If they can restrict your speed, what is stopping them from increasing it to "ludicrous" speed?

I’m glad to see Ford working on this technology. However, if everybody is speeding then overriding this speed limit technology in order to keep up with traffic can arguably be as distractive as using a smart phone while driving imo.

I can hardly wait to hear the wailing when this becomes a colossal failure.

Sounds like it would be perfect for a Prius parked in the fast lane.

Odd, I think Subarus already have that system. I’ve never seen one of those lesbian mobiles even go the speed limit.

I think some motor company thought about doing this 30-40 years ago. It was about as popular as hemorrhoids. They quickly dropped the idea.

The number one problem, I believe, is that frequently, out of safety, people have to exceed the speed limit, sometimes just for a few seconds, otherwise because they think they *have* to.

“Oh, gee, the wife has gone into labor, but the speed limit en route to the hospital is only 25 mph. So, sorry, honey. I guess the baby will have to wait! It’s only 10 miles!”

Exceeding the speed limit is one of the primary ways to avoid other people’s accidents.

Like a carrot on a stick, but you replace the carrot with a 120mph sign photo

The worst neighborhood offenders are the people who live there. They'll honk
and raise hell at you for going the speed limit, then flip you off and cuss if
they're doing the lawn and see you "speed by".
