I guess the easiest way to test is to keep an eye on it next time you're on a motorway with variable speed signs.
Apologies for resurrecting this old thread but I was on the M25 this morning and my speed limit info was constantly changing in line with the overhead gantry limits. Until today I was under the impression by speed limit info was only taken from the sat nav but this can't be the case. I don't have any of the Driver Assistant packages so am somewhat mystified. My car camera must be reading / recognising the signs. Now all I need to do is find a 'no overtaking' sign and see if this has any reaction?
