Same here. I am more surprised by that than it's sign reading ability.

... sometimes technology can be full of it, just look at the drone they are not as smart as they are protrayed as long as there is a trigger happy GI behind the joystick the drone cant figure out who are the bad guys.

I still wonder why a car should 'read' traffic signs, does it assume its being driven by an idiot or something!?

Perhaps it should!!! Some drivers are idiots. Case in point:
Some woman blew thru a stop sign down the street from my
house. (Lot's of people blow this one cause it's a right turn after the stop).
She wasn't watching where she was going and ran into the back of a trailer
parked on the corner right where she made the right turn without
stopping......
