Do BMW have a "speed limit assist" type function?

One feature that I loved on my Benz was the Speed Limit Assist. Instead of like cruise, where you set your constant speed, Speed Limit Assist set a maximum speed, and if you pressed the accelerator down and kept it down, you would not go over that limit.

I found this incredible useful for average speed cameras.

Using cruise in avg speed camera zones is OK if there's little / no traffic around, but when busy, its often not possible to do 50mph in a 50 zone - and so your constantly engaging / disengaging the cruise.

I tried adaptive cruise as I thought this would be the answer, but I tried it on a Volvo and hated it.

So today I took delivery of my new 3 series - and I can't seem to find such a speed limit assist function. Cruise yes. But not what I'm after.

Is it only MB that have this feature ?
