Another doozy from the EU [size=1.35em]EU plans speed-limiting technology for new cars from 2022 
[/size]

[size=1.35em]      [/size] All new cars could be fitted with special devices from 2022 to automatically make them keep to the speed limit after new EU rules were provisionally agreed.

cars will also be fitted with compulsory data recorders "black boxes". So if you have an accident, the police and your insurance company will know whether you've been keeping your foot down and routinely ignoring the car's warnings.

Can you imagine the size of the queues at the dealers in December 2021 for 'The last of the fast-uns' :lol .

Indeed. The day might come when they take down all the unnecessary speed cameras

That's right they will not be necessary because through the gps system that controls it, the fine will be instantly taken from your bank account.
Not only that - it will mean that you can be watched and tracked wherever you go. If you were told the full extent of the scope of these technologies and the gov control behind them you would never accept them but because you are fed them slowly you accept them.

The EUs own report describes it as "an in-vehicle system that supports drivers' compliance with the speed limit"

Also the EU say in their report
"How acceptable is ISA? Around a quarter of the European drivers are of the opinion that it is 'very useful' to have a device in the car that restrains you from exceeding the speed limits. The practical experiments in both Sweden and the Netherlands have shown that the acceptance of ISA increases if concrete experience with it has been gained."

So 75% of the drivers in the survey said they did not think it useful. But the EU wants it and so without YOU being asked they go ahead and do it anyway and their research shows that once it has been forced on you then you begin to accept it.

This is how the EU operate and it is a remainer Unicorn to keep saying that out of the EU we will have no say --- we have no say now. We are in the EU - were you asked.

What will follow is the mandatory retro fitting to all vehicles and the owners will have to pay the cost.

Sorry Dazza. Don't follow your links. They're all bollocks. If you want to say something, say it here 

Don't worry I have clicked the link so you don't have to and here are a few screen shots for you. I really feel relived that our future may be in the hands of this lot.

I agree it's a terrible idea, and our (current) government has decided they are going to do it as well anyway.


I'm fearful of the whole idea of autonomous cars or even large scale 'driver assist', of which this is the worst example. I don't want somebody's software deciding whether I survive.

[Dudeofrude]

On the plus side it won't apply to motorbikes (yet anyway), only cars, Van's, buses and lorries

But it isn't.
Here's a couple of pictures giving a better idea of the day. You may spot a couple of your mates  :lol

Finally an admittance that the EU dictators dish out some stupid bad ideas. And our gov HAVE to adopt it because we were and still are in the EU. At least out of the EU we can actually blame and change our own government.

Yes I recognise one of them

[mtread]

Well it doesn't come in until 2022, so how come 'we have to adopt it'? Get your facts straight.


Unless we're still in the EU by then of course

Here's the start of Nigel's march in Sunderland. Looks like it's going well. No idea how that EU flag got in the picture 

[mtread]

Yes I recognise one of them

That would be difficult. He's dead. 

[fazersharp]

Sorry I was mistaken but I think I recognise someone else

[fazersharp]

What's that you say Frank.
"The EU --- I thinks it faulty"

[fazersharp]

And I think that woman is getting confused with this

[mtread]

Great stuff, but I still think the picture of a grumpy Nigel being twatted with an EU flag is better

I agree it's a terrible idea, and our (current) government has decided they are going to do it as well anyway.

No, I don’t much fancy it either, but our government is already looking at adopting it.


On the other hand, 1793 people died on our roads in 2017.  There were 170,993 casualties. 



It’s one thing blasting about on your bike, but hopefully doing so with your eyes pealed and with consideration to others.  But I am sure everyday you, like me, see people driving without any regard whatsoever for others. 



So there is some inevitability that tighter controls, which are enabled by modern technology, will be introduced.

Oh the petitions,


Revoke article 50 is now 5,881,298 and still rising as I type this.
The we want NO DEAL petition is 581,777

With a petition approaching 6 million and some one million people taking to the streets of London last weekend.  Well it is clear people want their say.  And there is no thirst whatsoever in the country for NO DEAL.

Tusk had the audacity to stand up in the EU parliment as say "You can not betray the 6 million who marched and signed the petition to revoke article 50"  :eek :eek
The shear brass neck and arrogance of the man. (betray 6 million BETRAY !!! ) what about the 17 million Tusk  :rolleyes 

Are you remainers really happy to live under these kind of people --- really
