Anti speeding
A new weapon in the anti-speeding war...


Big brother is getting even more hi-tech with the news that the government is testing bikes that can be automatically slowed by satellite intervention. Looks like there will soon be a new weapon in the anti-speeding war.

Don't worry...someone will soon come up with a device which will transmit a message back to the satellite, telling it that you are doing 29.99 mph, when in fact you are doing 100mph.
