European road safety organization OVK (Ouders van Verongelukte Kinderen - Parents of Children Killed in Road Accidents) has launched the Slow Down iPhone app, designed to raise awareness on carelessness while driving. The music-based warning app uses GPS to work out the speed of the car and kicks into action when the driver exceeds the speed limit.
If he or she drives faster than the speed limit, the Slow Down app makes the music track slow down reminding the driver to slow down. If the driver exceeds the speed limit by more than 10kph (6.2 mph) the music stops altogether. The music will resume as the driver slows back down to the speed limit.

Can they make this available for Android? Perhaps using OpenStreet?
This is the 2nd most important use I have for a GPS, and the ones I've found so far have only had useless visual alarms, rather than audible.
