Interestingly alcometer locks on cars and speed limiters are very rare. Except for minorities, like truck or taxi drivers. Small groups of voters, so politicians can do what they wish with them.
Seems like it's "okay" when you can get away with it. But not okay when large group of people get some slight inconvenience.

- vlehto 10y agoCar speed limiter is completely trivial, cheap and potentially life saving. "Most Japanese domestic market vehicles are limited to 180 km/h (112 mph) or 190 km/h (118 mph)." Almost twice the common maximum speed limit (100km/h).
- coldtea 10y agoAnd orthogonal to "alcometer locks". You can be lethal as a driver well under the maximum speed limit if drunk.
