The driver is alerted by both visual and auditory feedback, and if they continue to exceed the speed limit, the system will automatically restrict engine power until the vehicle returns to the allowed speed.
I wonder who determines "how long" for exceeding the speed limit? A Getz passing a road-train would take a LONG time .. could mean a nasty accident. I'm basically all against something which relies on a computer to artificially control the throttle (or steering) on a vehicle. Over the course of their relatively short operational lifespans most computers would make a lot more unrecoverable stuff-ups than a human ..
