OK, so allow speed bursting. This isn't an overly complicated issue. Allowing for short bursts of speed (5 seconds?) should be enough to allow preventable accidents and could also be smart enough to deal with people on/off/on/off the gas trying to get a higher speed.
Does anyone else see the need for a distributed prior art review. The idea is fairly simple, when a patent is applied for, it is placed into a queue where anyone who wants to sign up for the job can spend a small amount of time looking for any prior art. If any is found, the user is allowed to upload the data as well as some simple references that can be attached to the patent that would be flagged for review. This should at the very least provide some time savings for the patent officers, and allow all of us (myself included) to quit bitching and help out.
