"Special speed assist devices that automatically warn drivers when they are travelling over the limit will be installed in the vehicles of repeat offenders as part of a trial to curb speeding on Victorian roads. Roads and Ports Minister Tim Pallas launched the Repeat Speeders Trial that would see Intelligent Speed Assist (ISA) devices fitted to participants’ vehicles for three months. “The device has been designed to assist motorists to manage their speed,” Mr Pallas said. “We understand people are concerned about safety on our roads, which is why the Brumby Labor Government is taking action to improve community safety and drive down the road toll."
