Traffic sign recognition wasn't displayed by the HUD on the car I drove last week.
The handbook extract below seems to confirm that's the case up to 15MY at least. Nice to know that it is good up to 155mph though! I don't remember seeing that sign on the Gaydon track during the launch event but I only got up to 150mph. Wonder what's the highest defined speed limit sign on a public road worldwide?

I think the HUD may have only became available on model year 15.5 cars. I had to delay my build until after January of this year to get it on the spec. Extract of the manual for the HUD is below. You can configure the Traffic Sign Recognition to not be displayed. I have my display on all of the time. I got used to it very quickly and I don't notice it being there but it means the info is available when you need it. The Sat NAv prompts are useful, especially the exit number for roundabouts, saves having to look down at the dash when there maybe lots going on.

Quite right, I didn't look closely enough at the manual. Presumably it was not configured to display on the car I drove.

One thing to bear in mind. You have to also specify the climate control windscreen when you spec the HUD.
