Yesterday the new speed limit sign reading failed in an annoying way. I was on a windy, hilly section of highway near Crescent City, California:
The speed limit was 55, but when I passed this sign (from Google Maps):
The car switched to a speed limit of 30 MPH, and wouldn't let autopilot work at more than 35 MPH.
So, some more work needs to be done on speed limit detection (because Caltrans isn't likely to change their signs to something like this:
).
Remind me, if I turn off the traffic control detection, will the car not limit autopilot to 5 MPH over the limit?
