Are we being forced to go electric?

You still have a small amount of key info in front of you (speed, camera sensors view etc) if you are in an S or X

The S/X have quite a lot of information in the driver display. It can be altered to display different features. You can if you want scroll for phone numbers with the buttons or just press voice prompt key.

When are we getting the alerts that go off when you're over the speed limit anyway ? I'm looking forward to that.

You can set speed limit on Tesla.

I can set the speed limit on the F54 MINI Clubman. It does limit the speed and provides a warning. I'm using it increasingly in town and in roadworks areas with 50mph limits.

I’ve had a few cars with speed limiters but they have all been optional and user-programmable (ie, you set the speed limit rather than it being the speed limit of the road you are on). My current car has “speed limit assist” where it reads speed limit signs and, if enabled, will warn you if you are exceeding it.

I mean I can log into a moving car and limit its top speed, whilst sat at home

Every car I have had with cruise control also has a speed limit option - but not tied to the road, you set it yourself.

All cars have speed limiters, even Model T's, it's called your right foot. You shouldn't need a computer to do that.

True. And I never actually use it.

Slightly pedantic I know, but, the Model T has a hand throttle, you don't use your foot
