Driver assistance system of a motor vehicle, to be connected with a navigation unit and a camera unit; wherein the navigation unit is adapted to access map data representing road segments of a road network located in the geographic proximity of the motor vehicle and road signs located on the road segments, to determine a current position of the motor vehicle located on a road segment, and to provide first information of at least one road sign to the driver assistance system, which road sign is located on a position of a road segment to be traveled by the motor vehicle based on the current position of the motor vehicle. The driver assistance system is adapted to provide second information of the at least one road sign to the camera unit based on the first information provided by the navigation unit. The camera unit is adapted to capture an environment of the motor vehicle, to match the captured environment of the motor vehicle with the second information, to detect a road sign substantially coinciding with the second information in the captured environment, and to provide third information of the at least one detected road sign to the driver assistance system. The driver assistance system is further adapted to output a corresponding signalling to the driver of the motor vehicle or a velocity affecting unit of the motor vehicle based on the third information provided by the camera unit.
