limiter

In March of last year the agency sought public comment on updates to the new vehicle ratings, including whether speed limiters or warnings should be added.

So I think the fear of blowing it was a limiter to how broad the comedy could go.

A recent report disclosed that one bureau analyst used the name of a member of Congress to search the repository without sufficient “limiters” to focus results on the task at hand.

And it disclosed that an F.B.I. intelligence analyst had queried “using only the name of a U.S. congressman,” without necessary “limiters” to closely focus the search on a specific topic.

The early morning air was filled with tire smoke and the sounds of car engines bouncing off the rev limiter.
