Slow Down Act
The Slow Down Act directs the federal government to fund programs that require the installation of active intelligent speed assistance technology in vehicles driven by individuals with repeated or severe speeding violations. This technology automatically limits a vehicle's speed to prevent it from exceeding the legal limit. The bill aims to improve highway safety by targeting drivers who have a history of ignoring speed limits and mandating that their cars enforce compliance electronically.
