How about automatically beeping at people who can't figure out how to use the god damn passing lane as it is intended?
Better yet, get V2V standard implemented and when the front facing radar senses you're less than five mph and you have more than quarter mile between you an the next car in the right lane and you have a approaching car from behind, have the car audio automatically be taken over with nothing but chorus from Move by Ludacris, ft. Mystikal & I-20 until your dumb ass moves over.
Mandatory distractions. What could go wrong?
Fuck this shit! Fuck it in its fucking face! God I hate modern bullshit! Yes, most people can barely drive the speed limit, but some of us don't live with our heads perpetually up our own assholes, and there are legitimate reasons to exceed the speed limit. For one, if you try going the speed limit on the i5 in California, you'll turn into a greasy smear on the inside of your car cabin, since everyone else is going 20 over.
There's a really good way to reduce speeding without dumb moves like this. Design the road for the speed you want. Most roads in the US are created first without speed limit concerns, only labeling them based on a weird metric of how fast cars drive through them. Then if they are going too fast, governments just put up more warning signs and call it a day.
There are many techniques in the road design handbook that can be used to make drivers subconsciously slow down for their own perceived safety. And it works! So let's do more of that and less of this "make car beep" nonsense.
Hollister, CA tried to implement one of those designs and it was comically horrible. Look it up. The stupidest fucking road I’ve ever seen. Made you drive like a drunk person on what otherwise is 25-35mph residential super straight road.
Fuckin snitch ass state i live in
