New York City is considering implementing accelerator-restrictor technology for frequent speeders, particularly in school zones. The Intelligent Speed Assistance (ISA) pilot program would restrict the acceleration of cars whose drivers have a history of speeding violations. This initiative aligns with laws in other states like Virginia and D.C. that require convicted speeders to adopt this technology. Advocacy group Transportation Alternatives has highlighted extreme cases of repeat violators, urging city lawmakers to support this measure to enhance public safety on city streets.
"The city could end up mandating the accelerator restrictors to force chronic speeders to involuntarily slow down."
"Transportation Alternatives has identified 10 Big Apple drivers they call 'super speeders,' focusing on frequent violators in school-zones and neighborhoods with high speeding incidents."
