Speed limiter satellite technology proposed in the U.K.

An advisory commission in the United Kingdom has proposed a speed-limiting system for cars and trucks that will use satellite technology.
On a volunteer basis, motorists could opt to have devices installed in their vehicles that would prevent them from traveling above posted speed on any road, according to the report by the Commission for Integrated Transport and a group called Motorists Forum.
The system would require the government to implement a satellite grid that includes the posted speed limits on every stretch of road and highway in the country.

That'll come in handy when you need to burn rubber to escape some disaster or invading Russians.
