Road Sign Information (RSI) –
limitations
RSI's camera has the same limitations as the
human eye. See The camera’s limitations
(p. 210) for more information about the camera's
limitations.
Signs that indirectly indicate the speed limit
(such as a sign with a town's name and the per-
mitted speed limit) will not be registered by RSI.
Other factors that may interfere with RSI include:
•
Faded signs
•
Signs located in a curve
•
Twisted or damaged signs
•
Obstructed signs
•
Signs that are partially covered by snow, ice,
etc.
