Just received the HW3 upgrade a few days ago. Since the upgrade and at lower speeds, Autosteer speed is limited to the speed limit and it no longer allows me to increase the autosteer speed by a few miles an hour over the speed limit like it used to allow me before the HW3 upgrade. It does seem to allow for it over a certain speed limit such as 50 mph or maybe when I am on the highway, but when I am on regular roads with speed limits of 30 to 45, it limits the autosteer speed to the speed limit. I have checked every setting and even have the the speed limit function set to relative and +5 with no luck. Is this a part of a recent software upgrade or am is there an incorrect setting somewhere?

Autosteer speed restricted after HW3 upgrade

Basically local roads are limited to the speed limit. The exceptions are local roads that are divided (with a median). I believe on those you can set the limit higher. While on local roads with the limit you can still use the accelerator pedal to go faster without disengaging auto steer. As @n8dagr8 said the limit is imposed when you have traffic light and stop sign control on in settings.
I have found that although the auto speed is restricted (to the speed limit), you can over ride it by pressing the gas peddle. You can maintain a faster speed of your choosing, and everything else works (lane control, stop signs & lights with override, etc...) - you just control the speed with the peddle.
This is the greatest news ever and I have been saying for years. This is FSD. A lot of people have not realized this, but need to accept. Unlike 100% of drivers on the road, FSD follows the law.. If the speed limit is 50, your car will go 50. No higher no lower. Autonomous vehicles will require laws issuing their own speed limits, however until that point our cars will obey the existing driving laws. We will enter the age of 200+ MPH Hwy/street speeds, but will be a long way.
He’s peddling a new way to say ‘pedal’
Know you can’t. Your out of line. And its true you’re breaks are bad also. /s
Seriously, today is the land of misspellings everywhere for whatever reason.

Hoping the car can drive like a human soon. Where in the world does driving the speed limit not cause traffic issues? In California where the car is made and tested it's literally dangerous to drive this way. I have my car set to drive 8 MPH over the limit and people blow past me wherever I drive. This feature only allowing you to go the speed limit is going to keep everyone from using it. That not help them get good information on it. They should be letting us drive with the rest of traffic and overriding if the car gets in over its head. Makes it easy to tell if there is something that needs to be fixed.
Fine speeding drivers & the costs of policing pay for themselves

The trick is that people drive what they feel competent to drive based on their environment. So if the Speed Limit is 70 they will drive faster than that until they are pulled over or the speed seems scary. If they are driving 100 MPH they are almost sure to be pulled over. But if they are driving 72 MPH they are almost assured to NOT be pulled over as it will be hard to get the fines to stick, it will end up in court. So over time we come to an agreement on the speed of roads. The trip SF to LA can be driven with cruise control on at 83 MPH where the limit is 70 and the cops will drive right by you.
@Nuclear Fusion seems to think that because Telsa has decided to limit the car's speed to the Speed Limit ALL OTHER CARS must now slow down and an increase in police presence must be asserted to impose this. That's crazy. This balance has been understood for a long time, and it would be best if Tesla adopts it soon as it's not safe driving this slow.

If the cars do not follow the laws once they are FSD it will be a great income source for small town USA. Catch the Tesla at 8 over and mail the ticket off to corporate. Do you even have to pull it over if there is no one inside?
