The system, which goes by the somewhat clunky "navigation-cooperative intelligent pedal" name, monitors the car’s location via the navigation system and keeps an eye out for upcoming curves and bends in the road. It judges the maximum safe speed from the tightness of the curve and then keeps a watch on the car’s speed.

The system based on GPS  sounds great because most drivers from time to time, under estimate dangers on the road due to over enthusiasm, wrongly judging of road conditions etc. And so this system slows down the vehicle if it senses the car approaching the corner too fast.
