I have downloaded the latest camera database on to my Go 520.
The issue I have is that the Go picks up cameras on roads either side of the road I am travelling on and is therefore 'pinging' needlessly much more than I want.
I have reduced the warning distance for the cameras, but obviously bringing a 70 mph warning down to say 100 yards would not give enough warning at that speed.
Any fix for this please so that only the road I am on picks up the cameras (like my Nuvi 300 used to).
Thanks, Steve Question

When using Warn When Near the last Menu Option is Only Warn if on Route.

Tick this and this will reduce the number of warnings to only those on your Route.

The catch is that if you don't have a Route Set, then you get no warnings at all. Rolling Eyes
