My car shows current speed limit on
the Car Play screen when I have Google mapping in use. It is
occasionally wrong; I'm pretty confident it comes over the phone
from some Google database.

On the other hand, my wife's Volvo shows the current speed limit
on the dashboard. It is always correct; I'm pretty certain the
value comes from a forward facing camera reading the speed limit
signs as they are encountered.


Can you tell us the year and model of your car, and the year of your
wife's Volvo?

My five year old car has none of that, but it's a pretty low-end model.
It didn't even come with an in-car entertainment screen.
