Hi,
Having just been to Scotland and back (with two young kids ) I was wondering if there was anywhere I could download a poi of the main service stations in the UK ??

When driving I just looked on my Tomtom for the next petrol station, but I was thinking it would be nice to have the service stations on it if poss.

Cheers,

Lyngarth

I think that on TomToms the service areas are in the Rest Area category.

Go to the POI Downloads page by clicking Here expand the "Transport" option and you will find a POI file for what you are looking for - Mike
