Republicans: Don't tread on my freedom! No seatbelts, no helmets! FREEDOM!

Also Republicans: Let's install a device in your car to track and enforce your activity

When you commit gun related crimes you lose your right to own guns. When you get caught speeding repeatedly you dont lose your license but just get a speed cap? I think this is too lenient actually. If you cant follow the rules and insist on endangering others then you shouldnt be allowed to drive. I really do not see any issue with this, its not remote tracking, its just a speed limiter installed in your car. Be grateful that you dont get your driving license revoked.

To be honest, I don't understand why any car can go over 140 km/h. I get people want to enjoy their freedoms and all but it's not worth it really.

140km/h is what roller coasters are for :D

Or just get on a high speed train, then you can go 300km/h or more :P
