Speed limiter installation in UAE and the basics you need to know

May 20, 2022 11:51 am

The continual increase in the number of road accidents and subsequent loss of lives have made the UAE government take several measures to prevent accidents. The introduction of speed limiters and making them mandatory for vehicles is the latest such initiative.

As the name itself suggests, a speed limiter is a device that, once installed in your vehicle, restricts it from travelling over a specified speed that the driver has set. Unlike the cruise control feature in modern cars, speed limiters will not maintain a pre-set speed. It will only restrict the vehicle from exceeding the set speed limit, even if the driver presses the accelerator pedal.

How does a speed limiter work?

Once a speed limiter system is installed in your car by a professional, its speed sensors can detect the speed at which the car is moving. This information will be transferred to the car engine’s computer; which once the car reaches the set speed limit, will restrict or cut the flow of fuel and air into the engine. This action automatically stops the car from exceeding the set speed limit; even if the driver continues to press the accelerator pedal.

 

How is a speed limiter installed?

The speed limiter installation was done by resetting the wiring system, the computer system, and the fuel injection system on the car. Once it is set in place by a professional and the wires are reconnected, the car’s computer system will be tested to make sure that everything is working perfectly.
