Another added threat (for me): Since last year every car sold in the EU needs to alarm it's driver if he is going over the speed limit (recognized by either GPS+online maps or cameras (speed limit signs)).

As I couldn't stand constantly flacking dashboards and/or beeping that limits my future cars to 2023 or older.

I recently rented a 2025 Renault and I found that feature completely annoying as there was no way to set the margin at which the alarm beeped. I would be driving 51 or 52 km/h in a 50 zone and the damned thing would start beeping at me. I would love to have that kind of sensor on my car and set it at +20 km/h so that it would actually beep at me when I meaningfully exceed the limit, but when the damned beeps begin at 1 km/h over, it's enough to drive you to drink.
