The [[Motorists Forum]] is a government advisory panel. It is decribed as an 'independent body'<ref>Nash, E. (2005) 'SPEEDING CUT PLAN'. <i>The Mirror</i> 20th September 2005</ref>, which is part of The [[Commission for Integrated Transport ]] (CfIT). It was launched in January 2000 'to advise on policy proposals affecting motorists'<ref>The Motorists Forum [http://www.cfit.gov.uk/mf/ Home page] Accessed 16th August 2008</ref>. It describes its membership as including 'drivers, manufacturers, motoring organisations and managers of the road network'<ref>The Motorists Forum [http://www.cfit.gov.uk/mf/membership/index.htm Membership] Accessed 16th August 2008</ref>.

In 2005, the Motorists' Forum is reported to have produced a report calling for 'speed limits to be displayed in vehicles and an electronic system to automatically slow down speeding drivers'. I also advised that 'a government database could beam speed limits to drivers' and that 'aircraft-style "black boxes" in cars would provide crucial information about the cause of crashes'.
