Speed limiters on commercial trucks already exist. They could be applied to private cars too. Not sure why, on public roads, there is much of a reason to drive 100 miles per hour. Many cars can go beyond that.
I agree about a remote kill switch. That has too high a potential to be abused. A limiter though, one that was fixed and not variable based on anything, would be fine I think.
if that was the law how would you enforce it in any meaningful way? People would overide/not have them.
Well we'd just force them! How!!?! Mechanically minded people mod cars everyday. Then police would have more reason to F with everyone at their pleasure. You would for sure need more surveillance from the state. Probably need more expensive proprietary anti-consumer tech inside the car you own.
Do you know why I pulled you over? Your car transponder isn't transmitting properly.

Through the OEM. Wouldn't be hard to create a system that tracks location locally using GPS and electronically applies an according speed limit from a govt database
Acceleration is a simple matter of distance/time/time.

People break all sorts of laws every day. It doesn't mean you don't bother making them.

Actually they'd have less, considering cars would be physically incapable of speeding.
