The upcoming 2019.16 update promises a new feature called "Conditional Speed Limits". The release notes description reads as follows:
"Your vehicle will now display conditional speed limits, such as speed limit based on time of day, weather condition, etc. If there is a conditional speed limit for your current road, it will be displayed in grey below the regular speed limit sign,”
Tesla rolls out Driving Visualizations, Sentry Mode upgrades, and more in new update
These notes don't say how the car will know about conditional speed limits. Will it get the data from GPS? Cameras? Maybe the car will just determine its own conditional speed limit when the cameras detect a lot of rain or detect twilight?
But this is certainly an intriguing feature that seems to be another useful piece of the FSD puzzle. After all, the car being able to set a speed limit based on outside conditions would be important.
Could this be a sign that Tesla is getting closer to camera based speed limit sign recognition or maybe implementing it in shadow mode?
What do you all think of this new feature?
