Britain fights EU’s ‘Big Brother’ bid to fit every car with speed limiter

“Drivers face having their cars  fitted with devices that slam on the brakes if they go over the speed limit, under draconian new road safety measures being drawn up by  officials in Brussels. All new cars would have to include camera systems that ‘read’ the limits displayed on road signs and automatically apply the brakes.  And vehicles already on the road could even be sent back to garages to be fitted with the ‘Big Brother’ technology, meaning that no car in the UK would be allowed to travel faster than 70mph – the speed limit on motorways.  The EC’s Mobility and Transport Department aims to slash the death toll from traffic accidents by a third by 2020.”
