Default All you kids driving mommy's car...get in here

Ford has a new key for you. It's called the MYKEY system. Read all about it here: FORD’S NEW MYKEY SYSTEM HELPS TEENS DRIVE SAFER, CONSERVE FUEL; GIVES PARENTS PEACE OF MIND | Ford Motor Company Newsroom

Apparently, it allows parents to limit the speed of the car as well as limit the stereo volume and make the seatbelt alarm more insistant.

I like it, but I can't afford any cars with it. Of course, my wife would just use it on me.

Tim... With my luck in my mom's car, if she ever got that I'd probably break it.

Oh fuck that shit. Im all for parents being a little more proactive in controlling their children but not putting shit like this in cars. Stuff like this is going to pave the way for things like little printers in your dash that print out citations every time you go over the speed limit or dont use a blinker when you turn or change lanes.

If the gooberment WANTED to do stuff like that, they already could. This is for the parents to limit their children. Ultimatly, it will keep young drivers safer on the road. Except for those road ragers. LOL Immagine being stuck behind some kid thats 16 in mommy's car.....which was set at a max speed of 45 mph and the kid didn' know and got on the freeway. LOL

I think if you don't trust your kid you shouldn't let them drive without you in the car.

Don't let Obama see that idea!! That would save our economy in itself.
