Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
We want to reduce Road Rage by calming drivers.
We want to eliminate accidental speeding tickets.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
Our strategies are:
1) Allowing everyone to knowing the speed limit thru the "Wikispeedia Speed Limit Database".
People can then build apps which beep when you speed, or smart cruise controls which slow in speed zones.
2) Allowing easy access to books on tape with our speederaser smart car mirror.
No one want to fumble with more gadgets while they drive. The Speederaser is very safe to use.
Listening to books on tape is very calming.
3) Offering Service-Hours to High Schoolers. This is a great way for kids to help kids not get accidental
speeding tickets. We offer online service hours, no driving required.
Everything is DIY, described on wikispeedia.org
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
Our group has been discussing safety strategies on [email protected] for over 10 years.
All ideas are discussed there.
No one at Wikispeedia.org has ever received any salary or payment.
We are unique in providing software, tools, service-hours, source-code, diy-kits, all free of charge since 2005.
Most of our group are inventors or tecnologists, as far away as Venezuela.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
Our 501c3 was revoked from June 2018 due to a government mistake. It took six months to reinstate that with about a dozen phone calls to the IRS. That took a ton of time and is finally behind us. We made no changes,
it was solely the slowness of getting into Pub78 and then into the MBR...
Next, our single funding source backed out, but then changed their mind. This took 3 months to sort out.
Keep in mind that there are no public speed limit databases. We are the first attempt. There are commercial speed limit products
such as Garmin, but none of them hook to your cruise control or allow you to "do something with speed limit information".
We specifically target "uses of speed limit information", which is unique and tricky, but never commercial.
When we reach $200 we will approach a judge and hand out our first Speederaser to a lucky speeder ;-)
Then we will see if they rip it our or have any good things to say about it calming their drive!
