DOT Considering Requiring Speed Limiters on Trucks and Buses over 26,000 pounds
#11

Like many laws, this is one with good intentions and lots of bad consequences.

I wonder is the limiter going to be set at a maximum or gps so that it changes with the road the truck is driving on? A truck going 65 in a 45 is more dangerous than a truck going 65 in a 60.

Most of the near accidents I've witnessed resulted in other cars being the culprit... like a jack ass in a car sling shotting around a truck only to slam on its brakes and cause the truck (or me!) to slam on mine. This often happens at slow speeds or even traffic jams.
