Speed Kills but so does Stupidity

I read something in the local newspaper yesterday which really shows a lack of forthought on the part of some schmucks out there.

Yes, I will be the first to admit there is a problem with idiots on the road driving far too fast for the conditions and their skill level. Even if they do have the skill to handle driving as fast as they do, doing so on the public roads is a recipe for disaster.

Ok, now that we have that aside, there are a few yokals out there who seem to think the cure for this problem is to restrict the speed of a vehicle based on the GPS position of the vehicle. Aside from the obvious fact this method has no way to account for changing weather conditions, road construction or traffic congestion. What about the situations where someone needs to get the fuck out of the way of someone speeding towards them and the only way to avoid the accident is to step on the gas and blast out of the way? Ya ok, the poor fuck has one of these speed retarder devices installed and is blocked from speeding up to avoid an accident.

Come on people, a little bit of forthought would be nice. Remember it isn't speed that kills it is the dumb fucks behind the wheel. I'm not pretending to know the answers, just bitching about the answers of others.
