If you thought speed cameras were bad enough read this. It'll send a chill down your spine. Speed governers. Imagine the carnage when you try to increase your speed to escape from a dangerous situation and your on board policeman prevents you doing so. Result: = Carnage.

Be afraid. Be VERY afraid!

Over my dead body would one of these be fitted to my car (said demise being caused by the device itself the first time I couldn't accelerate out of trouble).

This bloke is a certifiable idiot.

We've seen what these do to lorries limited to 56 mph and the 0.0001 mph speed differential overtaking. Well, imagine the same thing at 70mph....carnage.
