I will say one more thing... Proving that the car does READ speed limit signs can POSSIBLY be very easy to do...as long as the car isn't as smart as we hope it is.
The easiest test to do would be to take a public road and place a speed limit sign that is say 5mph or 10mph different than the roads speed limit.
Lets go through possible results of the above test...
1. Car DISPLAYS test speed limit sign with test sign speed correctly in the car visualization. The car updates the circled road speed on the display with the test sign speed.
This PROVES that the car is READING speed limit signs.
2. Car Displays test speed limit sign with test sign speed correctly in the car visualization but does NOT update circled road speed on the display with the test sign speed.
This probably proves that the car is reading the speed on the test sign but there is a question as to why it didn't update the circled road speed. Likely reason is that the car compared the visual result with another data source and the other data source had a higher priority for action.
3. Car Displays test speed limit sign but displays the incorrect test sign speed. Car does or does not update circled road speed display.
This would either be a general mistake in the reading of the value, or could fall in the category of the car is guessing based on other unknown data.
4. Car doesn't display sign at all and nothing updates.
This is a who knows what happened, more testing required.
