Safety Cameras not Alerting

[njsb]

Dave

In your review you showed safety camera alerts, I have been unable to get alerts from Safety Cameras.

I have POI Alerts enabled, selected Category: Custom, Type: All Types, have selected On Route and then Near Route. But get no alerts. I have tried the standard view (from start driving), 2d View and 3d view (my preferred view). But still no alerts.

Also have noticed POI's appear on the map if I am stationary or stop, but as soon as I drive they disappear from the map.

Any ideas would be useful.

I have been looking at the POI's and have spotted that 'Safety Camera' is a type in 'Travel & Transportaion' category.

I have enabled this and will see if this work (which I expect it will) tomorrow.

Still not sure why the POI's disappear when driving, unless this is a feature ? (I have display POI's enabled as part of the Map config options)

Providing you enable this category it will work, the camera info will come up on screen and you will be given the option to avoid, ignore, cancel but it will time out and eventually drop back to safety screen view (not sure exactly how long it takes, but I think it's in the region of about 20 secs).

Worked fine today, have now enabled all POI's to alert.

On the C500 the alerts are displayed for 5 seconds then disappear, so I don't bother accepting or ignoring, they disappear quickly enough not to interefe with the routing.
