Have you ever been driving on the highway at 80 mph with the music at what feels like a comfortable volume, only to pull off at an exit with the music blaring in your ears? Why not have a volume regulator that adjusts the stereo to the speed of the vehicle? Wouldn't that be great! That way you can concentrate on the road and your next turn rather than the distracting music.

Or how about a reverse invention.

The volume knob affects a throttle governor in direct proportion. The louder your stereo, the lower your max RPM.

I think BMW or Saab has this on their high-end cars. The stereo volume is automatically adjusted based on speed.
