Question for you all
Does the Sat Nav have speed cameras on it?
Does it warn you or show you speed cameras?
Does it tell you the speed of the road you are on?
And have heard that if you drop below 20 miles to empty, it will flash all the petrol station in Red?

Many thanks for the help

Yes but they just come up as warnings
Yes it says warning but that's it
Yes I think so but will check
And I didn't see that when I nearly got caught out but if anybody knows anything about it I'd like to know

Manders!

Petrol stations appear at 50mph!

Mine hasn't notified me of speed camera's yet, guess i've not gone near any haha. Or i didnt turn the setting on.... :doh:
It does say on the sat nav the speed limit of >EVERY< road when you're on it/when it changes which is handy for ignoring... ;)

Manders I was referring to the fact that I hadn't seen petrol stations flash red when I nearly got caught out running out of fuel and I was below 20 miles to empty

Yes to all except I hadn't noticed the petrol station locations one, I like :)

Manders check your settings on the Sat Nav, even if you are not using say Nav it will still prompt you about a camera near you by saying caution. Obviously if using the sat Nav it will also show you a warning triangle of where the caution is

It's under 'Hazard Alerts' in the sat nav settings, I set it to 'Visual and Chimes' that was the only one I could find... haven't yet tested.

I have got the Ford Sat Nav option but my navigation config is dual Android with Google Maps and the TomTom speed camera overlay on my primary mobile and Waze on my other mobile.

Google Maps for navigation with traffic which transfers destination info from desktop to mobile.

TomTom speed camera which has always delivered including every HADECS on the M25.

Waze for crowdsourced real time emergency advice.

Also streams Spotify.

This incident didn't trigger an event so I found the clips after I got home. Sods law that the actual incident occurred right on the boundary between 2 clips. Safe for work as expletive now muted.

The A44 Fish Hill is an awesome road heading south east.

For best quality select 1080p HD and YouTube always dumbs down the quality so the original Thinkware F750 footage is much better,
