Option to set vehicle's top speed to GO Mobile App

Could it be possible to add an option to mobile go, where you could set vehicles max speed?
For example a car with a hanger can't drive as fast as just a car

    Definitely need this. Using TomTom Go on my Android Phone in my car and camper van (1992 diesel). Calculated routes for the later are not always the fastest.

    I have yet to see anyone keeping to these speeds with a trailer attached.

    I have seen cars with trailers passing me and I am doing 125 KM and the pass me like I am standing still.

    The truth in the matter no one pays any attention the speed limits much less anyone with a trailer on the end of their car or van.

    Having an extra item add to a GPS app would be a waste of time.

    Knowing what speed you need to drive with a trail attached is as simple as looking at your dashboard and not to go over it.

    But like I said no one does that because they are to much in a rush.
    That's why we have accidents everyday on all the roads.

    No GPS app will help with that.

    It is not that I am afraid to exceed the maximum allowed speed. It's just the fact that I cannot drive as fast as the maximum allowed speed. For instance on motorways I would be allowed to drive 130 km/h with my camper van. However with a bit of help from the wind I could reach just over 100 km/h. But most of the times I would just stick to truck doing 80.

    Anyway, TomTom sometimes suggest a longer but faster route. But this goes for regular cars that can reach the maximum speed. In my case a shorter but (calculated) slower route happened to be the fastest.

    I hope this explains the reason behind my post... I thought the topic starter had this also in mind.

    Why buy an additional piece of hardware when I've got navigation on my phone?

    The Go 1015 has got that option.
    So, why Go 6200 and the Go mobile app does not get it?
