camera and/or navigation system
(when speed limit information is
available) to provide information
to the driver via the display.
If the system judges that the vehicle is being driven over the speed
limit, performing prohibited ac tions, etc. according to the recognized
road signs, it notifies the driver through a visual notification and notifi-
cation buzzer.
