Speed limiter!

[Tanisla2]

Have you tried the speed limiter?

Tried it today in Norfolk it works well with the speed limit camera. Just press the limit button set a speed and as you pass the speed limit signs it resets the max speed you can drive at, also good for fuel consumption. But I suspect rather frustrating for any body following you in a hurry!

Ian,

Be very very wary of allowing the speed signs to automatically determine and adjust the limit (think its an option on the dash somewhere), I had a really bad experience (and I think someone else has on here too) where I was accelerating from lights in an unrestricted zone when the camera saw a side road with a 20 limit on it! I had an instant cut in power, and i'm sure a bit of brake was applied, as I was already way past 50. Not a pleasant experience and I suspect the car behind me that almost rear ended me must have thought I'd brake checked him!!! Not used the camera limiter assistance since.

I do use the manual limiter a lot though and I like that.

"But I suspect rather frustrating for any body following you in a hurry!" ... I think you can set a tolerance in the dash, so it lets you go up to 10 MPH faster than the limit sign.
