Volvo Driver Monitoring and Mandatory Speed Limiters
Volvo is introducing in-car cameras to monitor driver distraction and intoxication, with the ability to intervene and stop the vehicle. The European Union is considering making such technology mandatory in all new cars. The hosts warn that these safety features will eventually be used for remote repossession for missed lease payments or to issue automatic speeding tickets via "black box" data.
