Transportation Minister Jim Bradley is resurrecting a Liberal pledge to make speed limiters mandatory for big rigs travelling in the province.

A speed limiter is a built-in microchip that can preset a truck's speed, which would be capped at 105 kilometres per hour.

If passed, Bradley says the legislation would require that the devices be activated on Ontario's roads.

He says the program will help the province cut down on greenhouse gas emissions and improve safety on roads.

Bradley says more than half of Ontario's trucks are already voluntarily using speed limiters, and the vast majority of trucks built in the last decade are equipped with the technology.

His predecessor, Donna Cansfield, promised to make speed limiters mandatory this summer -- an idea the Liberals have been mulling for more than a year.

not sure I want a highway clogged with big rigs trying to pass each other with the 1km/h difference between speed limiters...
