And why is it, that when the front fog light brigade are behind you, they get the hump when you put your rear fog lamp on. And when you're behind a rear fog lamper, they get the hump when you give them main beam?

i was working a system like on some scooters, what happens is that the car goes like a normal car, but as soon as you reach 70 - 80 mph, it makes the car go no faster, a sort of limiter. so if the car does 0 - 60 in 8 seconds it will, but as soon as it reaches 80 mph, it cant go any faster. scooters have been fitted with a system just like this for many years, so why not cars????

As to cars, well, I'd disconnect it!
As to scooters, I remember that bikes with leg shields and windscreens and the like reached terminal velocity on account of air resistance at about 80 - at which point, let us enjoy the recollection, they blew over.
Even semi modern bikes, I can affirm, do at least 60% better. GOOD!

If one manufacturer fitted such a limiter to their cars they would sell less cars. If all manufacturers fitted such a device to their cars then the value of used pre-limiter cars would quickly be more than the new ones.

Tut tut Andrew - I've not switched the front fogs on since I bought the car!

I thought the front fogs lights were some part of a complex system that allows the vehicle to be driven much faster and closer to the vehicle in front than usual whilst looking cool.
They also seem to be inextricably linked to the baseball hat circuit.
Can't see how you'd restrict their use, seeing as they add a good 20-30mph to the top speed of a car ;)
