5.4 Storing personal locations

The GPS Mirror can store up to 100 Personal Locations.  See section 6.2.3 

for further details.

5.5 Reporting new camera locations

The  Trinity  database  is  constantly  monitored  and  enhanced  with  new 

camera information and directional information.  The camera and safety 

information contained in the Trinity Database is provided free of charge 

to all users.  Please feel free to help us enhance the Trinity database for 

everyone by reporting new locations or changes to existing locations.  

Report  any  information  you  can  via  our  website  www.cameras.

speedcheetah.com or email as much information about the camera site to 

[email protected].   

Any information sent will only be used to enhance the Trinity database, 

and not for any other purpose.  Our global camera team will verify the 

details  and  enhance  the  Trinity  database,  allowing  every  single  user 

around the world to benefit.

Mobile Camera Warnings:    

Mobile cameras can be used anywhere and can potentially record 
your speed at 1000 metres or more. Warning of a single location 
within  a  mobile  camera  enforcement  area  is  not  necessarily 
sufficient.  If the camera moves within the area then the original 
warning will be ineffective.

The GPS Mirror will alert you to the start of the mobile enforcement 
area, before you drive within range of the mobile speed trap.  This 
means you will know that enforcement is possible around the next 
corner, or along the next straight stretch of road. Therefore, you will 
not see any distance countdown for mobile speed trap locations. 
  

IMPORTANT NOTE

5.3 Hazard Alerts

The GPS Mirror uses the Trinity database which contains details of danger 

areas and high risk accident locations that have been designated by police 

and government bodies, often by the placement of safety cameras.

When you are approaching a location that is stored in the Trinity database, 

the mirror provides spoken and audible warnings to advise you that you 

are approaching a hazard area.

Where  they  are  known  and  recorded  in  the  database,  “Advisory  speed 

limits”  are  announced  during  an  alert.  These  advisory  announcements 

are for guidance only. It is your responsibility to always be aware of the 

prevailing  speed  limit,  including  any  temporary  restrictions,  and  lower 

your driving speed to suit local driving conditions.

A spoken voice announcement will identify the hazard type at a preset 

distance before the hazard location.  If your speed is above the known 

advisory speed limit, you will be given a further announcement “Attention, 

overspeed.”    The  digital  speed  display  will  switch  to  give  a  distance 

countdown to a fixed camera hazard. This distance is shown in metres. 

One metre is approximately equal to one yard.

GPS warnings are directional, meaning you will receive warnings of targeted 
threats in your direction of travel.
