ACC responds to overhead freeway sign as it would a vehicle

I would hit the voice button and do a bug report at the sign. That takes a snapshot of the car logs right then. Then when you get home, you can call and report it to service and they can find the exact spot in the logs using your bug report.

 

Yeah, I would definitely recommend reporting this, especially if it's reproducible at a particular sign. The ADAS map tiles are supposed to have a whitelist of road segments where braking is disabled or certain objects are considered harmless. Sounds like that is not correctly set up for that road segment.

 

I think my car see's dead people. It hits the brakes all the time when absolutely nothing is around.

 

You are not entirely alone. Headed from Sunnyvale to Milpatas, CA on the 237 to 880 HOV lane flyway there is a sign on the left where Nicki always drops 5 MPH. No brakes, but does hit regen pretty hard. So far never a problem and I keep forgetting to send it in ><

 

You can search for "phantom braking" and find plenty of threads on this. It's the flip side of emergency braking or AP avoiding objects in the lane.

 

I regularly enjoy phantom braking - occasionally on dead straight roads (no signs/traffic ahead).
Keeps everyone on their toes, especially tailgaters.

Just got .18, crossing my fingers this issue is reducing.
