Safety Cameras
NOTICE
Garmin is not responsible for the accuracy of or the
consequences of using a custom point of interest or a safety
camera database.
Safety camera information is available in some locations. Check
for availability. For these locations, you
can purchase a subscription for safety camera information. The
subscription includes the locations of hundreds of safety
cameras. Your device alerts you when you are approaching a
safety camera and can warn you if you are driving too fast. The
data is updated at least weekly, so you can update your device
regularly to receive the most up-to-date information.
You can purchase a new region or extend an existing
subscription at any time. Each region that you purchase has an
expiration date.
Custom Points of Interest
Custom POIs are customized points on the map. They can
contain alerts that let you know if you are near a designated
point or if you are traveling faster than a specified speed.
