Aren't max speeds limited all the time on vehicles, with state mandated governors? I know some countries require them on all automobiles. Even the US requires them on ebikes.
- alpos 3y agoSpeed? yes. Acceleration? Not so much.
- zamnos 3y agoNot on cars in the US, no.
- tomatotomato37 3y agoModern cars usually have their engine max speed limited so they don't exceed your average all-season tire's speed rating, but arguably that's more equivalent to a redline limiter preventing your pistons from self-destructing than an type of anti-freedom measure
- mrguyorama 3y agoIt's not a legal requirement but most cars AFAIU are electronically limited to about 115 mph
- foobazgt 3y agoWhat region are you speaking of? AFAIK, any car marketed in the US to do over 115mph (of which there are many), will do over 115mph.
- mattlondon 3y agoHuh? In the UK at least they seem to have set upon 155 mph as the limit I don't think this is legislated anywhere (legal limit is 70mph anyway...) - some have higher limits for example.
