There are different types of Road Safety Cameras.
Some speed cameras stand by the roadside, looking in one direction, measuring one or
both directions of the traffic. They measure your current speed. For these speed cameras
you can specify the controlled traffic direction and the speed limit. Clarion Mobile Map

warns you when you approach these speed cameras in the measured direction. If your
speed exceeds the speed limit near the speed camera, Clarion Mobile Map plays a
special warning sound.
Some speed cameras are operated from vehicles. They do not always work and they are

not set to check a preset speed limit. The warning is similar to fixed speed cameras, but
as there is no speed limit given, only the proximity is announced.
Some speed cameras are built into traffic lights. They work like fixed speed cameras, but

they are difficult to spot. The warning for proximity and speeding is the same as for the
fixed speed cameras.
These speed cameras work in pairs, and do not measure your current speed but your
average speed between the two speed cameras. Both identify your car and record the
exact time you pass them. They use the difference between the two points in time to
calculate your average speed.
Clarion Mobile Map warns you when you approach one of these speed cameras, but
as you pass by, the warning stays on, and your average speed is measured until you
reach another speed camera of this type. If your average speed exceeds the speed limit

speed camera (for example, it is placed at the exit of a tunnel where GPS position is not
yet available) the warning continues. Just tap the speed camera symbol displayed on the
screen to stop the warning.
