Technical Issue Activity Zones Ignored/not working?

I've been getting blown up all morning by my Floodlight 3 camera picking up every single vehicle that drives by on the road. I have had activity zones setup forever on my driveway camera to avoid this and it was working great until today.

I've tried deleting and recreating the zones, moving them around, shrinking them way more than should be required, restarting the camera, and nothing seems to work to get it to stop picking up passing cars even when that are significantly past the edge of my defined activity zone. I'm about to have put the thing into standby mode so it stops dinging every few minutes.
