On August 26th, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, and the Department of
Transportation
issued a
notice of a proposed new regulation
which would require automakers to equip
Heavy Duty
Trucks with electronic speed limiters. This is largely an action to increase the safety of motorists in the event of a crash, as impact force increases relative to speed, especially if the vehicle in question is a
semi with a trailer attached that has difficulty stopping quickly
no matter what.
