How to Create Speed Limit Overrides (Desktop)
A Speed Limit Override is recommended for specific segments of a road where the default speed limit may be inappropriate or inaccurate, like a construction zone or areas with temporary speed restrictions.
This article shows how to create Speed Limit Overrides in the Driver Scorecard feature.
Permission Requirements:
Users with the "View all Driver Scorecards" and "Manage Scorecards" permissions enabled can create speed limit overrides.
