Gotcha. Cameras are good for those too. You can get speed limits and such from databases, but they may be out of date. A camera is guaranteed to see the latest every time. For an extreme example, the interstate closest to me has dynamic speed limits at peak times. My car can pick up the current limit with the camera, but a database lookup obviously couldn't.
