    New York Mulling Bill To Mandate Speed Limiters
    Officials in New York are mulling a bill that would mandate speed limiters in new vehicles that would be set to the local maximum allowable limit. The system would use GPS and traffic sign recognition technology to determine the speed limit.

    The system has an appropriately benign and Orwellian name: Active Intelligent Speed Assistance (ISA).

    Senate Bill S9528 was introduced by Manhattan State Senator Brad Hoylman on Aug. 12 and, if passed, would require any vehicle manufactured or registered in the state of New York to be fitted with the ISA system, starting from Jan. 1, 2024. It cites the results of a study that show such a system could reduce traffic fatalities by 20%.

    New York City is already running a trial with 50 vehicles from the city’s fleet fitted with an ISA system. The trial will run for six months.

    “Speeding ruins lives, so we must take action to prevent it, and New York City is leading by example by implementing new technology to reduce speeds on city fleet vehicles,” Eric Adams, New York City’s mayor, said in a statement.

    A saving grace is that safety standards for new vehicles, unlike emissions standards, are set at the federal level, which brings into question whether New York officials will be able to implement the bill even if passed.

    The bill is currently In Committee, which means it’s under consideration. It has not passed the New York State Senate or State Assembly, and if it passes both it would have to be signed into law or vetoed by the governor.

            Fukk the Police. They have no need to be stockpiling Urban assault vehicles and SWAT equipment. Absolutely no need whatsoever.

            Cocky officers will be the first to condemn Teacher’s Unions while standing behind their crooked Union that saves jobs of the most deplorable public servants of planet Earth.

            “Internal Affairs has investigated this incident and we find that the officers involved are innocent of all charges”. How much longer are you willing to absorb this BS???

            The time is coming, and approaching rapidly, that technology will bring the liars down. They still have the gall to deny illegal activities when there are cameras EVERYWHERE. Time to take out the trash because it’s obvious the good cops aren’t willing to stand up against the crooked cops.

            Told you guys I caught an “interfering with police charge a couple weeks ago. My court date is the 14th but will push it back a couple weeks so I’m 100% certain the judge will chastise this cop relentlessly.

              A police presence is the only thing keeping snowflakes like yourself from being raped while you sleep at night.

                    Slow your roll Froggy. You are way out of your league.

                    As for you hops Belize is a legitimate question. In the last five years we have lost my mother-in-law, my mother, three months later my father. Also had my Rottweiler die in my arms of a heart attack. My 18 year old cat also died.

                    My wife who is 10 years younger than I has suffered two heart attacks. These are the curveballs life will throw at you and usually when you least expect it to happen.

                    I’m not looking for any sympathy so please save the condolences. I rise with a smile because I answer the bell every morning to take care of my 29 year old disabled son. He is the light of my life. More special than anyone in this forum can possibly imagine.

                    Trouble? No chance. Tomorrow we leave for MGM Springfield Ma for the weekend. My son will get a chance to exercise in the heated pool and jacuzzi.

                    Tonight I will be playing at a $100 Baccarat table and I am bringing a pocketful of HELL with me!

                    Belize can wait. It’s not going anywhere. Neither is the 2-1 money exchange rate. So while the last five years has been no picnic I stood tall and took it all. Never abandoned anybody.
