What is feasible is a speed limiter based on the posted limit, but that'd be too practical.

I have recently got a car that tells me the currently posted limit and it is frequently wrong. It misses sign posts and sometimes thinks that a signpost for a side road applies to you.

It also has a speed limiter and a button to set the limit to the detected speed which I use a lot but I wouldn’t want it to do it itself.

Okay but we can still run a max speed governor. Put it at 78, with that annoying beeping sound if you creep above 75.
