Red light detection ?

[Allx]

Has anyone seen this work on 5.15 or 16.2? Tried a few times (carefully) and no dice ...

No, it has never worked for me under 16.2 or any prior version.

One time on v12 I thought I got a message about a redlight. Disappeared too quick for me to really read it. It wasn’t in v16 notes.

It very rarely notified me, and when it did, it was quite late to the game. I tested this on quiet roads about half a dozen times. During real-world driving its signaled an alarm once and I had already begun the process of stopping. My sense is its got to notify the driver earlier and more reliably.

Lol... I do assume when you are testing this you are on AP? I’ve see it work several times but you are quite close to running the light.

I wonder if the next version will speed up on yellow lights?

As I recall from the original Terminator movie, Arnold learned:
Red light …Stop
Yellow light …Go fast

I got it once, very momentary. Yeah, it was kinda stale to drive through. Not my finest moment, to be sure. A bad decision in the moment. No actual danger, since there wasn't any other vehicles close, but that's kinda beside the point.

Given what it took to trigger, the conditions that implies, I don't see how it would be helpful other than maybe wake up someone that just went through? So they can pull over to sleep before they do something like that, again.

But there seems to be other ways, I guess? I was in a 50 mph zone, maybe it is more feasible in lower speed zones?

Is there a setting you can see ? Or is this built in and we hope it works?
