Default Speed Limit Icon Changes

This is by no means a big deal, but more of an intellectual curiosity: the speed limit icon on my 2022 ES-350 F Sport periodically changes and I don't know why. It does appear to happen at lower speeds (or perhaps that's when I'm noticing it), but from time to time, a tiny sliver of a circle appears on the side. Is this just some artifact/bug that causes it to happen, or does it have a legitimate purpose? Thanks!

I just noticed that today too. No idea what it is though. Don't recall installing any update either.

Yeah, same thing on my 2021 ES hybrid. I can’t figure out what it means!

Probably it is showing the Europe sign under the US sign. A bug perhaps.

Thanks for the thread starter, I has not previously noticed the icon modifier.
Quick run through TIS does not address this specifically but reminded me
that we can adjust the "over the limit" warning threshold in settings. Now I
have to play around with that and continue to drive over the limit in the name
of science!
Side fact that I found reveals that the forward facing camera has a heater, who knew?

Put that baby in SPORT mode and don't worry about speed limits

I'm just passing through here from the NX forum, but I noticed today that my '22 NX does this as well. I wasn't able to observe the changes enough to be certain, but it might have something to do with changes in the speed limit - either that the speed limit on the road has changed, or is about to change. Almost certainly not a bug, though.

I noticed a change when having the car make a call. It used to say "calling Joe, mobile." Now it says "calling the mobile number for Joe."

Actually, there is no consistency since it does it either way with no rhyme or reason.
