2 Things I cannot find on Tomtom 5...

1. Where in Preferences can you change speeds of travelling etc like you could in TT3?, you could say change Motorways to 80MPH or 60MPH if you drive slower, giving an accurate time, now the accuracy isn't as good???

2. When you are somewhere say you used to be able to press Memorize location and add it to POI or FAV's or just route back to the Memorized Location, this has gone too?

Otherwise TT5 is great, and scrolls loads better and faster and doesn't crash (yet)!

Question

Hi

Nah no good, this just does an overall speed.

I just wanted to be able to set my own realistic road speeds, now it seems to do just the exact road speed or less in busy times.

A journey I did today said it would take an hour.. it was a clean run and I did it in 38 mins!

I had TT3 set with more realistic speeds, now I cant change them and the time to destination doesnt seem to change until you are nearly there.

Why havent they left the option in? Surely it would make sense, if you always drive at 3am on empty roads (for extreme example...) then you would have much higher average speeds, yet it wouldnt let you change. seems like a backwards step to me.

Seems TomTom forgot to add all the good stuff out of TTN 3 in favour of copying all the bad stuff out of TomTom Go Sad
