Ford has developed a way for parents to have more control over their child's driving habits. I personally don't have children, but I would certainly like to have this feature added to my child's first car. Heck I wouldn't mind having this feature for my car right now. I hate to sound like a nerd, but this is a great step in safety.
MyKey, which debuts next year as a standard feature on the 2010 Ford Focus, lets parents program speed and audio volume limits. When the MyKey is put into the ignition, the system reads the transponder chip in the key and immediately enables certain default driving modes.
Ford’s Beltminder chimes at regular intervals and the audio system is muted until your kid clicks their seat belt. the speed limit can be limited to 80 mph , a speed alert chimes at 45, 55 or 65 mph, traction control system, which limits tire spin, cannot be deactivated , and stereo volume can be topped off at 44 percent of total volume.
