Just what we need, another major distraction for women drivers.

Plans for a state-of-the-art camera from a satellite to monitor deforestation in Africa's Congo Basin have been unveiled. The high resolution camera will provide a detailed view of the area's rate of forest cover loss. Any rate that goes above 55 miles an hour will be mailed a speeding ticket.
In addition, signs that read, "speed monitored by satellite" will be posted around the forest.
