Read in the Hindustan Times today that Public and Commercial vehicles in Maharastra will now be electronically limited to 65 kmph.

As usual the unions are not happy and argue that as it is trucks and tempos cannot go over 65 kmph on the roads but the argument for the speed limiter is the aim of reducing accidents in the state. Last year 11000 deaths were reported and this is a way to reduce those accidents.
