haven stated out all these, my candid advice as a licensed marketer, technician/installer and user of this device are as followed:
1. We all know that vehicles ware out with age, so as a driver, the best good you can do yourself and other road users is to know your vehicle and be sincere to admit when age is telling on the it.

2. Also do well to be sure your vehicle at its preset speed limit can outrun the one you intend to overtake before making any attempt to do so.

3. Please don't ever try to quickly overtake a vehicle ahead of u on a single lane double track road when there is a vehicle coming in opposite direction, as some folks always drive as if they have no destination, but at the moment they notice your vehicle beside them to overtake them, they also begin to accelerate in competition, this is not safe for you if there be an oncoming vehicle, also the limiter might not allow you compete favorably.

4. Ensure to take caution whenever the device notifies you of getting beyond the stipulated speed limit programmed for your vehicle, some of the devices give buzzing sounds to notify drivers, while others holds down the accelerator from exceeding the limit, while some functions in both ways. so, whichever you have installed, get to understand it, and work with it appropriately.
