So then let's just get rid of all the stop signs.

30. Limit vehicle speeds

An analogous response to the current gun debate would be to limit speed capability with GPS to the maximum permissible speed on that road for all new cars. This would prevent new cars from being as dangerous. We of course would allow law enforcement and other government agencies to have vehicles which have not been modified so they may respond to emergencies and other needs. We could limit availability of fuel and also raise the price to discourage people with existing vehicles from speeding, since higher speeds use more fuel. Also, we should ban high horsepower engines that can be put into new cars which would give them enhanced capabilities to exceed speed limits. Any car having two features which are considered "race car" features, such as racing stripes and loud exhaust would result in a ban on that particular vehicle, unless modified to a non-threatening "sedan" state by the owner.

Let the fun begin....

Another thought-

Limit the tank capacity of a vehicle to only enough fuel to get up to a minimum (say 55mph) speed before you have to fill up again. You can a carry extra gas cans with you so you can fill up repeatedly, or drive slower to extend the range of the fuel...
