The "Slow Down Act" proposes significant changes to State highway safety programs by amending title 23 of the United States Code. Its primary objective is to mandate the establishment and implementation of new "Stop Super Speeders" programs across states. These programs would require individuals with a history of repeated or severe speeding violations to install and utilize active intelligent speed assistance technology in their motor vehicles. This advanced technology is designed to automatically limit the vehicle's speed , preventing it from exceeding the applicable speed limit. The bill also stipulates that these programs must include penalties for individuals who fail to comply with these new requirements.
