The speed governors thingie will never work. The Govt cannot enforce people to use it in personal cars and even if they do they dont have a way of checking if its functioning or not. And if i can go at 100 kmph on the expressway, i surely can drive at the same speed in narrower roads as well.. This is plain stupid, nothing else.
And from experience, I had an Indicab driver who told me that there was a speed governor for 60kmph installed on his vehicle and he even showed me that it was all connected and functioning. He took me to the outer ring road during my drop to office and demonstrated that he could easily touch 90 kmph with the governor fully functional. He said he did not go to remove it since he was able to do 120 kmph on the highway. Seems strange.. but its right there for us to see...
I am not sure if its good for the engine to have a governor during constant running after the run in period as well. I remember diesel vehicles in the initial stages used to come with them fitted from the company. But the company guys used to remove it as soon as the vehicle went for first service. My dad had once told me that the engine gets damaged if you keep running the vehicle with the governor installed. |
