Speed alert - limiter

Speed alert - limiter

I have a Garmin Nuvi 255w. I have been booked for speeding twice recently, and it's costing me. Both times I was in areas not covered by the GPS speed alerts. I have been looking at other limiting devices, but they are very expensive. (around $300).
Is there a program or way to set my own speed limit and have the GPS warn me when I go over. Modern cars are so quiet and comfortable... yeah, I know it's my own fault!
Can anyone please advise me if there is anything available, or being developed? Could be a winner!!!
Thanks,
Tony

I'd be interested in this functionality as well.
In the mean time recording and sharing these locations as custom POI's can help.

I just bought a Garmin Nuvi 255WT (same model but comes with Traffic feature). Sad to say, it doesn't look like it has a speed alert. I hope it's something that's coming in a future patch.

Speed Limit

The Nuvi 265WT shows speed limit in certain highways, but maybe that's not the feature you are looking for.

Further to alerting self set speed with GPS

Hi,
Further to controlling and alerting speed with GPS: Has anyone heard of the some sort of GPS speed limiter or do-it-yourself program for programming a GPS.
Anyone had any experience or comment to make?
Thanks,
Tony

If this means what I think it could be dangerous, needs more than casual thought.
