Virginia

The LifeSafer Intelligence Speed Assistance (ISA) is a device that goes in vehicles and controls acceleration to keep drivers within speed limits. The technology is being promoted as a solution to reduce roadway crashes, particularly among teen drivers.

Virginia is looking to officially become the first state to impose speed-limiting devices on the vehicles of drivers convicted of certain speed-related offenses.

Pedestrians are now twice as likely to be killed in the D.C. area as they were a decade ago, even as more local leaders promise safer streets.
