Uber’s Speeding Alerts EXPLAINED | Contextual Speeding vs. Posted Limits

Not all speeding alerts are created equal - and some might not even be your fault.
In this episode of Show Me The Money Club, Sergio and Chris break down the truth behind Uber’s new speeding notifications and what CMT (Cambridge Mobile Telematics) says about how they’re actually calculated. Spoiler: it’s not just about posted speed limits anymore.
You’ll learn how contextual speeding works, what triggers an alert (hint: driving faster than 85% of traffic and 9+ mph over the limit for 5 seconds), and why some warnings come directly from Uber, not CMT. They also discuss how to toggle these alerts off and what to watch out for on bridges or outdated road segments.
If you’ve ever been flagged for speeding and thought, “Wait, I wasn’t speeding,” this video clears up the confusion once and for all.
