I used the ACC with automatic speed recognition for about two months but it did too many stupid brakings. I think using GPS to limit to the highest possible speed for highway/roads/city would be fine. But as long as the car can decide that on this highway it really thinks the 40 sign is for the main lane and not the off ramp, I would rather not have it


There are many places where roads are too close together for GPS to be reliable (for instance, frontage roads or spaghetti bowl interchanges).

If you're driving adjacent to or above/below a slower road, the technology needs to know that you're entitled to drive at the faster speed.


I guess you are right it is the same problem really. Where I live you could at least limit it to 80km/h in the city limits since there is no higher limit anywhere. But more granular limits might be hard
