\"Speed-Limiting
The proposed passive device is known as an \u201cintelligent speed limiter system\u201d<\/em> that would electronically prevent a driver from exceeding any posted speed limit by more than 10 mph in any given area within the state.

SAN FRANCISCO, CA – If a new bill in California proposed last week were to be eventually be signed into law, it would mandate that new vehicles be installed with tech that would\u00a0prevent them from being able to speed<\/a>\u00a0anywhere within the confines of the state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Speeding and Fatality Emergency Reduction on California Streets \u2013 otherwise known as SAFER California Streets \u2013 is a package of bills introduced on January 23. Contained within that package is SB 961, a bill authored by state senator Scott Wiener that, if passed, would require all new vehicles either built or sold in the state of California \u2013 starting from model year 2027 onward \u2013 to be installed with devices that would prevent them from being able to go more than 10 mph over the posted speed limit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Given the fact that the maximum speed limit posted within the confines of California is 70 mph, this means that the fastest any vehicle would be able to go would be 80 mph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
