A road speed governor which controls the maximum speed of a vehicle is described. First, the operation of a basic governor is detailed, then the author traces the development of the road speed governor. The latter operates in conjunction with the engine speed governor, resulting in reduced maintainance, fuel economy, and fewer traffic violations.
