I wouldn't be too sure about that. When your car phones home for update the corp can put anything they want in it. Just wait till you get a speeding ticket based on the recorded speeds of your car.

I'm not sure what I said that was good. do you really want a ticket everytime you speed up to safely pass another car. There are a lot of times when your doing 55 and the guy ahead is doing 54 so you speed up to pass without taking a mile.

@mral @apressler @outie @JohnJBurnsIII @q3k I'm sure there are ways to detect if you was just passing somebody or if you were speeding.

Such a method as proposed is frankly stupid since it only punishes after the fact and preventing speeding is the desirable goal. A mandatory geo-gated speed limiter on all motor vehicles would be much more efficient and effective solution. But if fines after the fact are all that are on offer, then yes. Give it to me.

But not for you, of course. You are special and deserve to be treated as such. I think you should be given lights and a siren.
