fixed speed cameras, but as there is no speed limit given, only the proximity
is announced.
Built-in
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.
Section
control
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 between the two speed cameras, you
receive the same special warning sound as with the other speed camera
types.
In the rare case Clarion Mobile Map cannot register the moment you pass the
second 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.
Tap again to display the second route event with the possibility to open the
Itinerary.
Red light
These cameras check if you obey traffic lights. The warning is similar to
mobile speed cameras: as there is no speed limit given, only the proximity is
announced.
2.4.10.2 Camera directions
A speed camera can measure the speed of one direction of the traffic, both directions, or even several
directions in an intersection, when they are mounted on a rotating base. The same directions apply to red
light cameras. Clarion Mobile Map warns you only if you drive in a measured or possibly measured
direction. The measured direction of the camera appears with the following symbols:
