Any real data on nags?

I recall that when 8.0 rolled out with the built-in nags, that there was some published guidelines about when the nags would occur. Does anyone remember these guidelines or have insight into real data?

I recall the following:

- Maximum time between nags is 3 minutes when driving above a certain speed
- No nags when driving below a certain speed (can't remember what the limit was)

I've observed:

- Nag frequency changes depending on what highway I'm driving
- Traffic (I think I remember that it nags more if there's no car in front of me)
- Immediate nag when manually accelerating
- Possibly delayed nag if I activate a lane change

Other possible factors:

- Time of day?
- Weather?

Thanks for any insight!

Search for posts from @wk057 . He has a lot of fact-based empirical data on this topic. Basically it calculates a lot of data points to trigger the nags and alerts.
