Crossing into another area or country
When you drive into an area or country that does not permit speed camera warnings, your GO
PROFESSIONAL switches the speed cameras service off. You will not receive speed cameras
warnings in those areas or countries.
Some areas or countries permit limited speed camera warnings, for example only warnings for fixed
cameras, or warnings for risk zones. Your GO PROFESSIONAL automatically switches to give limited
warnings when you cross into those areas or countries.
Speed camera warnings
Warnings are given as you approach a speed camera. You are warned in several ways:
A symbol is shown in the route bar and on your route on the map.
Your distance to the speed camera is shown in the route bar.
The speed limit at the camera location is shown in the route bar.
You hear a warning sound as you get near the camera.
While you are approaching a camera or driving in an average speed check area, your speed is
monitored. If you drive more than 5 km/h or 3 mph over the speed limit the route bar turns red. If
you drive less than 5 km/h or 3 mph over the speed limit the route bar turns orange.
Tip: In the map view or guidance view, you can select a speed camera symbol in the route bar to
see the type of camera, the maximum speed and also the length of an average speed check area.
In the map view, you can also select a speed camera that is shown on your route.
