ABSTRACT:
A speed control system employing a remote control system in which a vehicle is provided with a vehicle engine disabling/brake activating device or a vehicle speed control device capable of receiving a signal to immediately stop the vehicle or decelerate the speed of the vehicle when the remote control system has detected the presence of a pedestrian at a location, like a crosswalk, and the presence of the approaching vehicle. When a detector detects the presence of a pedestrian at a location, like a crosswalk, the remote control system is placed on stand-by status so that when the remote control system further receives a signal of the presence of an approaching vehicle, either due to a vehicle driving over a road safety bar or the vehicle being detected by an infrared detector, the remote control system transmits a signal to a vehicle engine disabling/brake activating device to disable the vehicle by either shutting down its vehicle engine and/or activating its brake system. The remote control system can alternatively transmit a signal to a vehicle speed control device in order to decelerate the speed of the vehicle. The vehicle is thus stopped or slowed down and subsequently stopped by the driver or to decelerate the speed of the vehicle prior to reaching the crosswalk; thereby, allowing the pedestrian to safely traverse the crosswalk.
