Summary
Edmonton’s city council is pushing for mandatory speed limiters on all cars—except emergency vehicles—to slash dangerous speeding and save lives. With speeding incidents up 128% and 32 deaths linked to excessive speed last year, officials argue driving is a privilege, not a right. The tech, already used on e-bikes and adopted in countries like the UK, EU, and Australia, could be standard on all new vehicles. While tampering is possible, it’s punishable by law—and speeding in cities saves almost no time while costing more fuel. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
