My car "reads" road signs but, as it was originally registered in England, it interprets the black diagonal line on white as "60mph".
Helpful as here it doesn't mean "national speed limit", it means "end of speed limit".
It's fine when it's just a picture on my dashboard, not so good if my car chose to limit itself to 60.
Smart motorways have existed in Germany for a long time and there are no issues.
The problem in the UK is that, as always, they try and do it on the cheap.

smart motorways were, imo, a kneejerk reaction to not enough motorway capacity, we all know the consequences of that decision
