Cars registered in the U.S. after '24 have to include this :-( Although it doesn't say they have to "announce it" like the Volvo in the article does.
It won't matter because everyone who lives near me drives under the speed limit anyway
My 9 year old car has it as one of the options to show in the heads up display. It’s pretty convenient. But I can switch to something else or turn it off if I don’t want it. As long as it stays that way, there’s no need for frowny faces yet.
I don't know... needing google for a 90% accurate speed limit indicator isn't great. I suppose this has more to do with paving the way fully self driving cars. I just hope whenever that finally arrives we can get a better target freeway speed than 45 mph average :-)
I don’t know how the Google thing works, but I disconnect the cellular antenna before driving a car off the lot, and the speed thing still works for me.
Yeah, I'm a hero in my own mind too ;-)
