....some buttons in the car that let me set a 'soft' speed limiter -
i.e. if you are driving gently and creep up to the limit, it stops
when it gets there. If you put your foot down and deliberately
accelerate past it, then it lets you.
The Renault Laguna has this (or at least a mate's 2 year old 3l v6
Privilege spec does.....)

I see it as an add on to a cruise control. Buttons or a clickwheel
for 30,40,50,60,70,80 (20?).
You set the speed in 1mph increments IIRC

That's no good, I want to approach a limit sign and punch the right button. Not start fiddling about trying to set it to 29mph... then 49mph... then 29mph... you get the picture.

I do indeed :o) All that button pushing whilst staring at the display between the speedo and rev counter is probably not a major contribution to road safety....
