Speed limiting in California

[Fordup]

I have seen this mentioned on the news but didn't realize it may not be far off in California

Wondering what stops other states from implementing it once the vehicles are properly equipped? Probably a good thing for insurance companies but hackers will probably have fun with it. Big brother will soon have full control over vehicles we buy. What a mess it will be on highways with both old and new technologies mixed. I bet this takes road rage to a new level.

Cali and NY...joined at the hip.

You realize this is already done, right? At 110? They'll just move it down to 75

Vehicles are already properly equipped, there's nothing left to invent, it's done in the ECU

This is the "man" that wrote the bill.

Wondering if he's related to Anthony Wiener we had in NY ?
Could be bad chromosomes in their blood.

10MPH over the limit might not be too good for passing.

They certainly have a similar physiognomy.

So whatever became of Dave ? The above thread prompted such a question.

No.
California wants to geo locate every car so it can't go faster than the posted speed for that location, plus 10. Not limit your maximum. That is limited because Cali's maximum at the moment is 70.

As a Californian. Stop voting for new taxes and stupid regulations. Keep these dumb asses out office.

Edit: Just realize after posting this might too political for some people. Oh well. Freedom of speech!

Think of all the electricity they will save by keeping those $100k EVs under 70 mph ?. While the old gassers from out of state go flying by.

I live in Cali… Angels fan as well. Couldn’t agree more. And will definitely retire in Az (Az is getting as bad as Cali now) maybe somewhere even more red Wyoming ?. the taxes and regulations here are out of control it’s amazing anything gets accomplished at all. Just look at the quality of the roads and freeways lmao. ?

Voting is pointless. We saw that in 2020, we saw that in 2022 and we will see it again in 2024. Anyone worth their salt that is uncorruptible and wants to actually serve this country will not be allowed anywhere near office anyways.

There was this Larry Elder clip, I'm not a supporter of his in anyway but when he dropped this I was like "yep, par for the course". He got railroaded right outta there.

Vote harder ?

I long ago never second guessed my retirement move. ??
