> The speed limiter technology, called Intelligent Speed Assistant (ISA) uses GPS data and/or traffic-sign-recognition cameras to determine the maximum speed allowed in an area. The system then limits the engine’s power and the vehicle’s speed to that limit.
> The speed limiter will send haptic, audio, and visual warnings until you start driving within the speed limits.
> You can override the system by pressing hard on the accelerator, but the system will reactivate every time the car is started.

I mean they could easily implant this through a software update. They probably have this already written into their code, all it takes is a key stroke to activate the command.
