Speed limit/tracker sticker needed.
Discussion
My company in all its wisdom has decided to fit our vans with new trackers that report us if we stray over the speed limit, as well as measure our braking/acceleration and cornering G's.
As such I would like a sticker to let people sat on my bumper know why I am driving bang on the limit on roads where everyone else would be going a bit faster.
I have seen vans with a sticker that states 'This vehicle is limited by tracker to all legal limits' and would like one.
Anyone know where sells these, not had any luck with Google or ebay.

Welcome to my world, our new fleet has them too and the transport department have taken to the new system like a pack of hungry wolves.
Unfortunately for them, one van reported last week that the driver had hit 65 in a 30 limit. It happened to be on his own street, which has numerous twists & turns that mean that even if you could get an asthmatic diesel van up to 65, you would run out of braking room very quickly and end up in somebody's lounge.
The whole system is now in complete disarray and everyone is refusing to sign the weekly speed reports

Can't answer your question but is it the system known as 'lightfoot'? (just out of interest)
Nope, Masternaut.The thing is we only get paid for 8 hours work to get our rounds done and my company don't pay over time, so they are shooting themselves in the foot. If they won't let me get on and drive how I need to to get my work done then I am just going to slow down when not driving and fail even more drops.

Do you really need a sticker to tell people why you're sticking to the limit?
No I don't 'need' one, but if it keeps people from tailgating me because they realise I am going that speed because I have no choice then it is a good thing, that OK with you?

Maybe it's borderline in a van where reduced limits apply, but in a car, with the exception of motorway, DC and 30 limits, if you drive at the speed limit you'll be going significantly faster than almost everyone else.I rarely exceed the limit and have no issues, except occasionally in 30s. I overtake stuff daily and almost noone overtakes me. Maybe I'm just lucky.

There are a fair few areas I drive where about 50% of people go faster than the limit such as 2 lane 30 zones, most will be going 40 or more, and almost nobody adheres to the 20 limits, especially during the day between rush hours.I rarely exceed the limit and have no issues, except occasionally in 30s.

I get them to make me custom signs all the time (for work) , and they sign write my vans. Good people, know what they are doing.
