Speed Limit Source

A row of five buttons lets you choose the source policy:

Option	What it does
Car Only	Uses only the speed limit data provided by your vehicle's built-in systems (e.g., traffic sign recognition from the car's cameras)
Map Only	Uses only OpenStreetMap data for speed limits. Requires a downloaded map database from the OSM panel
Car First	Checks the car's speed limit data first. Falls back to map data if the car does not report a limit
Map First	Checks map data first. Falls back to the car's reported limit if no map data is available
Combined	Uses the higher of the two available values from car and map sources

!!! tip Car First is a good default for vehicles with traffic sign recognition. If your vehicle does not have sign recognition, use Map Only or Map First and make sure you have downloaded the map for your region in the OSM panel.
