Big brother to control you speed on highway
It's the last thing many motorists would want -- a permanent, electronic back-seat driver, forcefully reminding them not to speed.
But Transport Canada is road-testing cutting-edge devices that use global positioning satellite technology and a digital speed-limit map to know when a driver is speeding, and to try to make them stop.
When a driver hits a certain percentage above the posted speed limit, the device kicks in and makes it difficult to press the accelerator.

My life as I know it would end if this ever came into being.
