Road Safety Camera directions

A speed camera can measure the speed of one direction of the traffic, both directions, or even
several directions at an intersection when mounted on a rotating base. Red light cameras
measure traffic in the same direction. Navigation warns you only if you are driving in a
measured or possibly measured direction. The measured direction of the camera appears with
the following symbols.

Section control

These speed cameras work in pairs, and do not
measure your current speed but your average speed
between the two speed cameras. Both identify your
car and record the exact time you pass them. They
use the difference between the two points in time to
calculate your average speed.
Navigation warns you when you approach these
speed cameras in the measured direction. The
warning continues as you pass the camera and your
average speed up to the other of the two cameras is
measured. If your average speed exceeds the speed
limit between the two speed cameras, you receive the
same special warning sound as with the other speed
camera types.
In the rare case Navigation cannot register the
moment you pass the second speed camera (for
example, it is placed at the exit of a tunnel where GPS
positioning is not yet available) the warning
continues. Touch the speed camera symbol
displayed on the screen to stop the warning.

Red light

These cameras check whether traffic lights are being
obeyed. The warning is similar to mobile speed
cameras. As there is no associated speed limit, only
the proximity is announced.
