Noticed a Ford ad for "Mykey" here while browsing and clicked it out of curiosity.
The standard class-exclusive* programmable MyKey™ feature employs several innovative tools designed to help parents encourage teenagers to drive safely. Standard settings (that cannot be altered or disabled) include: • The Belt-Minder® System, which reminds front passenger occupants to buckle their safety belts, cannot be disabled and will not expire (the audio system also gets muted whenever BeltMinder is activated)† • Low-fuel warnings are displayed in the message center followed by a chime when the Distance-to-Empty value reaches 75 miles (120 km) • If equipped, the available Reverse Sensing System, Blind Spot Information System (BLIS™) with cross-traffic alert and forward collision warning cannot be deactivated. Optional settings, which can be changed by authorized users, include: • Limiting the vehicle’s maximum speed to 80 mph (130 kmh); visual warnings and chimes are displayed at the vehicle’s start to inform the driver that the vehicle speed is limited to 80 mph (130 kmh) • Should the vehicle speed limit setting be activated, at 75 mph the driver is given an audio warning that the vehicle is approaching the top speed; at 80 mph, the driver is warned that the vehicle has reached the top speed and is encouraged to check his/her speed – and drive safely – via visual warnings and chimes. There are several maximum speed settings available, including 45-, 55- or 65-mph (75-, 90-, or 105-kmh. • The maximum volume of the audio system is limited to 45 percent. • The AdvanceTrac® System cannot be turned off. When this setting is on, the MyKey user will not be able to deactivate the system. This prevents the driver from burning the tires, performing doughnuts and other unsafe practices.
