We have a Spanish Seat Altea ecomotive that has all 3 features as standard.

The gear change indicator is quite useful in some circumstances.

Recently changed the 2 front tyres and the low pressure indicator came on, just pressed the reset button to take it off.

It also has stop / start for the engine, this has an override button for when you think it will be a short stop.

My Golf has all off these and the tyre pressure warning is brilliant. Even though I have been driving for around 50 years I still occasionally leave my car in too lower a gear by mistake as you cannot hear the engine at all and the gear change indicator is a very useful reminder.

Can't see any problem at all with these proposals.

Roll on the day when all we have to do is program in the destination and the auto drive function gives you a gentle pinging to awaken you at your destination feeling fully refreshed...

One thing that is technically feasible is the ability to implement a maximum vehicle speed limit via GPS location and tamperproof vehicle software mapping.

I do believe that this will happen in my lifetime and is certainly more likely to come about than any kind of gun control is in the USA.

The last thing you want is for your speed to be limited by some thing that doesn't know what you are doing, not the best way to get killed.
