My thoughts...

1) Taxis will become significantly slower than minicabs,
and so will become a distress purchase for people who
can't get a minicab. People will prefer
any minicab, even an illegal one, to a taxi.


I think the general trend is to fit these things to
all cars in London, or at least that's what I read.


What and lose all that revenue from Speed
Cameras. I can't see that happening :-)


Good point. It is more likely that they will force every car to be fitted
with a device which phones the police every time you break a speed limit,
and they will make speed limiters illegal.

That's why my vehicle's the Piccadilly Line -
It's the size of a county and it comes every two and a half minutes
