Does this also come with a requirement that manufacturers provide free updates in perpetuity to the car's internal map of streets with speed limits?
Changes to roads and speed limits do happen occasionally, and it would drive me crazy to have my car complain I'm speeding when I'm really following the new speed limit for that road.
Google maps was putting my speed in red today because it still had a road marked as 35 MPH, that had been re-rated to 50 MPH after construction ended.
Honestly it seems dystopian. Like requiring a breathalyzer before you can turn the key in every car. Treatment like this is supposed to be reserved for those who lost their freedom through egregious actions -- not the entirety of society.
To be honest, having a breathalyzer on every car wouldn't be a horrible thing. This thing just pops up a warning like your TPMS sensors, it doesn't prevent you from going faster.
Fairly sure the way it will identify speed limits is based on the last sign the cameras have identified. I had a rental car that showed the speed limits in this manner and it was pretty nifty. "Low tech" yet high tech.
