A control and security system and method for vehicles, to allow specific criteria to be applied to operation by different drivers, which receives various inputs, for example road speed and engine RPM and interfaces with stored data specific to each authorised driver. Each driver must be identified to the vehicle, for example using an electronic key. Once authorised the system accesses data specific to each driver, which may include permitted speeds, time of use constraints, requirement to use a blood alcohol measurement device, or other limitations. The system also has outputs to devices to control vehicle performance or operation, for example a fuel flow control device or an engine immobiliser. If the conditions defined by the driver data are not met, then the system sends a signal to control vehicle performance - for example, to reduce vehicle speed. |
