Is there a way to disable the "Obey traffic laws" voice warning every single time I start navigation?

Is there a way to disable the "Obey traffic laws" voice warning every single time I start navigation? It's super annoying...

I hacked mine to say "Welcome to the Thunderdome!" ?

* no, I did not do that

FORSCAN perhaps. If you’re into hacking the car anyway. It’s a 10 second audio clip max. Is it really that annoying?

Hacked as in connected a cable between the vehicle and your computer, or as in accessed via wifi connection? Have a source to know which software system contains this message?

Something I can live with, but would rather not. This admonition is a standard expectation just like "breath while you drive."

nobody has talked about a way to do this that I am aware of.

I suspect there's a legal liability issue that would discourage an easy way to stop this.

Sorry, I was joking. Come to think of it, I was recently asked if there was something wrong with my sense of humor....

Ford covering their ass just in case you do something stupid lol. “Hey we told you to obey the law!”

Narration Voice “there was nothing wrong with his sense of humor”

I'm quickly moving to the "car should speak when spoken to" mindset. So many sensors, alerts, warnings, reminders, etc. If I need play by play and critique, I'll invite my better half to ride along. If I need it in stereo, then we'll invite her sister to join us.

Mine doesn't do it after 25,000 miles I guess.
Though it might have something to do with leaving the Ford Nav open when you turn the car off. Maybe it says that on start up only. Try having the radio be the last thing in focus when you go to shut down the car. (And if you're not actually using the Nav you can swipe down on the tile to close it)

It should just have a 10 second pop up window that disappears after that ~10 seconds.

Depends on how many Ford Lawyers you are willing to make disappear...
