Cool, he vetoed one thing that I agree should have been vetoed.

People are not getting into speeding accidents because they don't know they are speeding. This would solve nothing, but would be a distraction any time it triggers off an incorrectly indexed speed limit.

I assume the idea is to be like the seatbelt beeps: they prevent the unwanted behavior by being too annoying to ignore for more than a few seconds.

I wish tesla's and bmw's came with lane assist so that its harder to change lanes without a turn signal. also all cars should come with lights always on, so many cars in the early morning or dusk driving around with their lights off its hard to notice them

In Europe running lights are standard.
