It is in your Owner's Manual under "Speed Warning."

You can disable it by going through the button on the right side of the steering wheel. I forgot what the specific category is.

If you set it, then just retrace you steps. Trial and error. Stop by a Chevrolet dealer's service department.

Yes, Press SEL to enter the Options menu and use the up/down arrows.

I also do not recall the specific category, but you will find it with a bit of digging.

On right side of steering wheel Press left arrow to access the cluster
applications. Use up or down arrow to scroll
through the list of applications.

Go to Settings/Options
Scroll down to Speed warning and select it.
Now you can select to disable it.

Haven't had a ticket since early on in my C6 (bought new) - when I traded it had 128K miles - traded for a CTS-V in '11, traded that for a C7 ('15) traded it at 97K miles for a '19 C7 - and have put 40K+ miles on my Ferrari and no increase in premiums...
