Okay from this !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! on the Front Page comes the quote above.
!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!
From every action there are intended and unintended consequences. I see a tool so parents can closely monitoring kids driving habits. But it can work the other way too. Kids will find out how to access the monitor. It can provide a new challenge for kids to go out do each other to record most WOT events, or highest speed. We shall see.

I don't see the challenge thing you're saying. In HS we didn't have that and would still talk about that stuff. What I see is:
1.) This will never be used because the parents simply won't know how to use it
2.) The kids will disable it. A pin isn't that hard to figure out, especially your parents' pin
3.) The parents will set it once, then quickly disable it because THEY get annoyed by it
4.) This truck will never be bought for your teenage kid. If they for whatever reason get a small truck it will be a ranger, or if they get a new truck the parents won't spend the bank getting the GMC over the Chevy.

Okay, I don't claim to know; just raising the possibility. Like I said, we shall see as it plays out. And who knows, as technology goes further, perhaps big government will step into this end of the game. We might all be going to our kids to help disable it.
