Strange behavior for speed cam warnings

Post by Gallodoro77
I don't quite understand the logic of the speed cam warning. Sometimes I get a warning and sometimes not. I know that i am only supposed to get a warning when I am over the speed limit, but that holds not true from my experience
I got a nice picture taken yesterday and when I have had a look on my phone, I saw a visual warning, but it came without voiceover.
what happens to speeding cams on highways which are connected to a traffic control system and work with different speed limits?
Sometimes I also experience, that when there are two speeding cams in a row (500m apart), only the first one is announced.

Can someone enlighten me?

Even the part that says
While a Red Light Camera will always give an alert in the client as a driver approaches, a Speed Camera will always show a pop-up alert, but will only generate an audible alert if the driver is exceeding the set Speed Limit as they approach the camera.
Are the cameras in question configured properly (i.e. correct speed set)?

What country is this (you only list "Hannover" in your profile to the right of your post)?

Also, please post a Permalink so someone can look at the camera.

There are three things there (I panned a little to the west).
From west to east...
  1. An unconfigured/unapproved speedcam
  2. A landmark named "Speed Camera"
  3. An approved speed camera set for 80km/h
I'm going to move your post to the German forum, as they can probably help a lot more than I can.

Ich habe auch das Gefühl dass ich auf der Westautobahn Österreich auch wenn ich genau 80 fahre einmal gewarnt werde (akustisch) und einmal nicht obwohl ich vielleicht sogar 90 fahre... Hab den Link aber gerade nicht bei der Hand.

Also bis nach Obertauern wurde ich super navigiert und fleißig gewarnt, obwohl ich sehr gemütlich gefahren bin.

Auch ich habe teilweise dieses Problem. Es hat bei mir den Anschein, dass die Warnungen unregelmäßig gesprochen oder auch optisch angezeigt werden und dann wieder mal nicht. Keine Logik dahinter erkennbar. :shock:
