There are different types of Road Safety Cameras.

Description
Fixed
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. AZ291MA warns you
when you approach these speed cameras in the measured direction. If
your speed exceeds the speed limit near the speed camera, AZ291MA
plays a special warning sound.
Mobile
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.
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.
AZ291MA 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 AZ291MA cannot register the moment you pass the
second speed camera (for example, it is placed at the exit of a tunnel
