"California Considers Mandating Speed-Limiting Devices for Safer Roads"

California senator Scott Wiener has proposed a bill to introduce European-style speed limiter technology to American cars from 2027, which would be activated by GPS and posted signage, allowing users to exceed the limit by no more than 10 miles per hour. This move aims to address the increasing number of road fatalities caused by speeding, with proponents arguing that it would save lives and improve road safety. However, some critics argue that the proposed 10 mph buffer falls short of the hard cap spot on the speed limit implemented in the European Union, emphasizing the need to eliminate the acceptance of exceeding posted speed limits on public roads.
