yes, most speedometers are analog. but this one would be very analog. instead of telling you your speed in mph/kph, it would tell you in english how fast you are going. i.e. instead of 35, 55, or 70, it would say "moderately quick", "speedy", and "quite fast."
if you went too fast, say over
ninety-five, a little red flag would pop up (think, the 'expired' flag on a parking meter) replacing "really fast" with "HOLY CRAP!"

Like the "Rain", "Change" and "Fair" markings on all barometers, this idea is passe. So passe that it was never invented. - |

That's a funny notion [phundug] - something that's so old it was never new. |

That's what I need. I just passed a "HOLY CRAP!' speed sign a few miles back and had no idea what it meant. |

My tide-clock reads Low, Slack, and High. |

Would they be available in foreign languages for import cars? Make mine Italian-- lento, adagio, adante, allegretto, allegro, vivace, MAMA MIA! |
