My issue is that we have digital speed limit signs where I live and the system can’t read those. We have a Y and a CT and neither can read them. So it defaults to some pre programmed speed and we have to manually set the speed or we get run over. There are also a couple spots on the highway it thinks the speed drops from 65 to 55 where it doesn’t so it’s fun when it slams on the brakes on the highway for no reason 🤦‍♂️.
Like those top info boards digital number. My question is how do cops know when you’re speeding if speed limit is dynamic 🤣.

I have zero expertise in enforcement but I feel like in 2025 this should be enforced in a more sophisticated way than wasting the time of an officer sitting on the side of the road with a radar gun. I mean, there are drones and cameras that can measure speeds to within a decimal with extreme accuracy and ID the driver better than a human ever could.
There are better uses of @ABILISK ’s time.

For all the talk about the speed control right side wheel: for me, it has, and still, shows speed numbers on the screen when scrolling up or down. It usually can go to 85 MPH max. I usually have FSD in hurry mode because it never seems to go fast enough for me, and scrolling the wheel might make it speed up a little, or slow down a little, but it rarely actually goes the speed I set it to. It typically just acted as a suggestion to accelrate or decellerate button but to no specific speed, and uncorrelated to the digital speed shown on the screen when scrolling it up or down.

Lately I've been driving in standard FSD mode though, because in hurry mode it likes to ride in the fast lane like all the time and doesn't move right when faster traffic approaches from behind, and that makes me my own biggest pet-peeve in all of driving...which is people who just sit in the left lane like they own it...feeling all self-justified that they are going to speed limit and nobody has the right to pass them. On standard it seems to be better at getting out of the left passing lane...

Yes. In FSD 13 right?
14 loses that and adds sloth and mad max to either extreme of the FSD modes.

In order to solve that ”problem “ the U.S. needs to eliminate all speed limits on the interstate highways except when entering a potentially congested area such as entering city limits. This is the way the roads are on the autobahn (Germany) and autopista (Italy). In those countries vehicles default to the non-hammer lane because they are following the law. In the U.S. we have speed limits and if you are going the speed limit in the left lane you are not violating the law, as those going over the speed limit are. Time to focus on our legislators to change the laws rather than citizens following their laws🤗😇.
