Have you ever thinked of speed limit shown in the dash board of automobiles.Well, if you havent then you neednt ponder because it is already in use in Japan.
The new Nissan GT-R already comes equipped with a speed limiter or intelligent speed adaption (ISA) system. Unless you drive the vehicle onto the GPS coordinates for a racetrack, the onboard computer will prevent the vehicle from going faster than 112 mph (180 kph). The feature prevents drivers from reaching insane speeds and limits them to merely life-threatening velocities, but what happens when ISA systems are less lenient? Politicians and safe driving advocates in the United Kingdom continue to push for mandatory ISA systems in vehicles. They insist that the measure would cut down on accidents, congestion and pollution. In 2003 and 2004, researchers at Leeds University carried out experiments involving 20 ISA-enabled vehicles with largely positive results. Critics, however, argue that ISAs would merely create more problems by turning drivers into unobservant zombies.
Critics are always critics!!!!!
