I get passed by doucebags all the time at night going waaaay faster than they should... little doubt in my mind that while there are "aerodynamic improvements" made to their vehicles, they are still running stock brakes which don't do squat when they need to stop in a hurry.
I loved it when I saw one idiot pass me at a horrendous speed thru the Cassiar tunnel one night... only to see his POS Prelude smashed head-first into the wall before the bridge, once I got there a minute later. He didn't seem too impressed at that point... but he deserved what he got. Lucky he didn't take anyone else out.

I agree to all of the above people who said that there should be a cap at around 110-20 KM/H You don't need to even go that fast, regardless you're on highway or not. If you desire a faster speed then just take it off yourself but I'm staying away from you. I sense that in the future where all cars with be GPS equipped. By doing so the satellites will automatically limit the car's speed. For example, if you're on the highway and the limit is 90km/h, the satellite will sense your car's location along with the associated speed limit and will tell the on board computer to limit the car to that speed.

I use the Coquihalla every weekend.. Whoever said to have the speed capped at 110 on your car should be shot..

Anyone who even says "Yes" to this needs to be shot.
It's not like everyone speeds WAY past the limit.
It's called using common sense, and those who fail to do so end up with thier car smashed up on the barrier.
With that said, It'll cost about $20 to get the limiter removed easily. (with a fancy switch)
Sure, you won't be able to see how fast you're actually going, but there's way around that.
Remote switch, 2 wires, 4 solder connections.
But if you wanna get fancy and see how fast you're going without hitting the limit, it gets a little fancier than that.

| It doesn't matter if your "WAY" past the speed limit or a little over... your over the speed limit. view it anyway you want, it's still against the law. If you have a vaild drivers license you should be using your common sense while on the road for both your safety and others (at all times).
The only reason people should be saying "No" to this is cause its a waste of money. It's not that bad of an idea. But someone will crack it.
nuff' said

You know what?
I'm all for it If I were a normal daily commuter.
I drive the speed limit, I rarely speed since gas is murder on my car.
But if it "limits" my car from it's potential when I want to test it on the track That's kinda bullshit.
Please no GTR ecu bullshit that takes off the limiter when you're on the track.
I was born a HUMAN. I was raised to test my limits, and break them. I refuse to conform to the general consensus because I'm a MAN. I am a Man with common sense. I believe in Darwinism and whatever the fuck those Church people believe in.
Tkaing my factory speed limiter is taking away my pride, soul, and dignity. I refuse to be sheltered, and I expect the same respect that everyone else in Europe gets. No drinking limits, and no speed limits on certain highways. I believe in paying the cop to get away from a ticket. I believe in attempting to kill myself by going way faster than the car should from the factory. I believe that China will take over the world.
Because I'm a man. I am Chinese Born Canadian.
Taking away my speed limiter is taking away my freedom.
So I say FUCK YOU to whoever agrees to this bill. We need more Burnouts (fuck Yeah) and less Commuter grocery getters that barely hit 150.
I have a 4 Liter V8 that was designed in the late 80's and was electronically limited to 260 (before I took it off). I expect my future cars to do more and better than that speed.
Because I am a Man. And I need the feeling of almost killing myself.
Otherwise, I would drive a Corolla.

This is mudabullshit. I'll buy a brand new car before they equip this crap.
I don't get the point of this bill. Prevent people from speeding? Is this really going to be effective.

Having a speed limiter at 110km/h doesn't stop people driving at 110kmh on No.3 road or school zone, I don't see the point

is there really that many accidents involving cars going over 150Km/h? i mean usually when you go that quick you ensure you are in the safest of places so you dont kill yourself!
