I’m sorry - this is just fucking stupid. Cars are becoming way too bogged down with shit like this that acts like a hovering parent who nags you constantly while having to know where you are all the time.

We just got an electric car that does this and it's annoying as fuck because it often messes up the speed limit and tells you that you are going too fast even though you are not.

My thoughts exactly. There’s no way it’s going to be correct for every situation. It can’t take into account changing road conditions.

It's not even just the changing conditions. It just has wrong speed limit data in some areas and spmetimes it says there is work being done on the road where there isnt and similar
