i got the idea from this movie about this bus that had to speed around a city, keeping its speed over 50. and if its speed dropped, it would explode. i think it was called The Bus That Couldn't Slow Down.
I never understood with that one why they didn’t just put it up on blocks; it was reading the speedometer, not even GPS.
Guess it wouldn’t have made for as good a movie.
Or those spinny wheel dealies they have at the smog hutch
They only found out about it once the bus was in motion. It's pretty hard to get that set up on a moving bus.
