I was thinking about a novel new speed limiting technique this morning.
In a nutshell, the groundbreaking "Milwaukee system" is as follows:
There are no environmental controls in the vehicle, and the windows are sealed shut.
GPS based speed monitoring is linked to the heating system- running above the speed limit is linked logarithmicaly to thecabin temperature of the vehicle.
This feedback loop mimics the effect of wearing an unsuitably warm top when cycling- an effective method of slowing a cyclist down.
You could apply this to motorcyclists by use of a set of leathers that are plumbed into the heat control system of the bike- rather like the environmental control systems found in space suits.
Plus a GPS controller in their helmet.
