Advance warnings give time to reduce speed before cameras, reducing the risk of fines and improving confidence on unfamiliar routes.
Quick-to-read warnings - with a 5-inch display and audible voice alerts
A large display places the speed limit on the right and current speed on the left, using a red circle to indicate when the speed is above the limit and green when within it. Voice and audible alerts draw attention without requiring prolonged glances at the screen.
Drivers can assess whether to slow down in a glance while audible prompts cut down on distracted checks of the instrument panel.
Suitable for different vehicles - thanks to adjustable vehicle-type settings
Drivers can set and change the vehicle type to ensure the database shows the correct speed limits for cars, motorhomes, trucks and trailers. The selection alters which speed limit data the unit displays for a given location.
Larger-vehicle drivers and occasional hauliers get the appropriate posted limits, helping avoid misunderstandings on mixed-traffic roads.
