Would loading US speed cameras on my Garmin overwrite the UK ones?

(I have US maps on an SD card that I leave attached ... I often go to the US with work anduse the GPS in hire cars there).

I'm not a Garmin owner, so I'm only going on memory of what I've read here recently...

If I remember right, POILoader USED to always name the upload file as POI.gpi, so you needed to do some renaming work to get two files loaded simultaneously. but the recent versions allow you to name the files anything you like as you load them, so it's easier now.

The only thing you need to remember is what names you gave them, so that when you update the camera databases you use the same names so that the old versions get properly overwritten.

See the first post HERE and THIS POST for more details about how it was and how it is now.

EDIT: But also watchout for the latest version of POILoader, as mentioned in THIS POST
