Ford keys in speed curb

Keeping your speed in check will be even easier with the help of this clever new key from Ford. Boffins have developed the all-new ignition key, which contains a chip that can be pre-programmed to limit the driver’s pace – perfect for parents letting teenagers loose on their own set of wheels. The device can also give a seatbelt warning alert, and an early low-fuel warning. MyKey will come as standard on US versions of the Focus, plus Lincolns and Mercurys, from 2010.
