I suspect you have got the units wrong when you entered the cameras. 30kph = 18mph

if you use Garmin then you need to reinstall the database and make sure you select the units as Miles and Yards instead of KM and Meters

Units entered were mph... all other speed warnings are OK .... this appears to be a one off..... will try to find the e exact location..... there was no voice warning either!

do you have any POI files with '18' in the title? if so then POI Loader will assume this is a speed warning. We used to get 8mph warnings for Q-8 petrol and 4mph for 4-star petrol...
