Oh joy, this plus electric cars will really be a dampener on driving enjoyment.

Intelligent Speed Assistance uses a speed sign-recognition video camera and/or GPS-linked speed limit data to advise drivers of the current speed limit and automatically limit the speed of the vehicle as needed. ISA systems do not automatically apply the brakes, but simply limit engine power, preventing the vehicle from accelerating past the current speed limit unless overridden by the driver

I think someone like Bentley has a cruise control system which automatically sets itself to the speed limit.

My Peugeot 3008 has a cruise control that gives you the chance to set based on speed limit it has just seen - though you do have to press a button. It also had a speed limiter you can set to desired speed.

It's great for motorway journeys. No need to worry about cameras and can let the boy racers continue to do what they want
