    Ministers are exploring the introduction of the devices - expected to cost
    hundreds of pounds - which automatically cut the throttle on motor-bikes to
    bring them within the speed limit.

    Known as Intelligent Speed Adaptation (ISA), the devices will also be able
    to track bikers' journeys and store data about each motorbike's speed.

    If further trials are successful, the devices could be brought in for cars
    and other vehicles in an attempt to drastically cut the death toll on the
    country's roads.



    Wonder how many people are gonna be killed when they can't accelerate out of
    the way?

    How ya'll been?
