This mostly depends on whether Wellington elects a bunch of insane people next month or not, current council is pretty unified in reducing speed limits

car speedos should stop out at +10km/h above the national speed limit (eg 120km/h) instead of this insane 250km/h+ bullshit so people stop thinking 30km/h is slow in cities

One real-life problem is that the gas pedals are usually designed suchly that maintaining 30 km/h is painful on the ankle. Then again literally literally no-one should ever be driving a private automobile inside a city or town so I don't actually care.

my car has a speed limiter, set it to the speed limit and you can mash the pedal to the floor if you want, it won't exceed the limit. a great feature every car should have.

Why have an analog gauge at all, just show the speed on a little square screen in the dash

Because the normal gauge is more easily observed when driving, making it easier to follow speed limits.

"Any set-up with x(n) is the same. The value of n doesn't matter." (Although not all clocks have two hands. The cathedral clock only has one and, speaking from experience, it's very very fast to read, just not as accurate. Oh hey sounds like some characteristics a speedometer can have!)

yes. also it should be set automatically by either gps or ~geofencing~ and drivers are unable to override it.
