 Drivers could have speed limited by satellite devices

Last Updated: 12:01am BST 

Drivers could have their speed controlled by satellite to stop them from 
breaking the limit following a Government trial of new technology. 
        * Telegraph Motoring homepage 
Cars fitted with the system would have their speed automatically monitored by 
satellites, which would also be programmed with the speed limits for 
different roads.  

A motorist who tried to accelerate beyond the speed limit would find the 
system stopping the car from going any faster or issuing a warning 
instructing them to slow down.
