An Intelligent Speed Adaption (ISA) system is being tested by the London for Transport (TfL). The eye-in-the-sky ISA system relies on a computer installed in the vehicle with pre-loaded speed limit road data that is monitored from a satellite. Initially, the test run will be limited to a cab, public buses and government cars overseen by the TfL. Testing will begin this Summer and run for six months.
