4.6 Speed cameras
There is a built-in database of fixed and mobile speed cameras. It is also possible to
add new cameras to enhance this database. MioMap can warn you when you
approach one of these cameras. You can fine-tune this warning in General settings
(Page 63).
Speed cameras are displayed with small camera symbols on the map.
4.6.1 Camera types
There are four types of speed cameras:
4.6.1.1 Fixed cameras
Some cameras stand by the roadside, looking in one direction, measuring one or
both directions of the traffic. They measure your current speed. For these cameras

exceeds the speed limit near the camera, a special warning sound will be played.
These cameras are displayed with the following symbol:
4.6.1.2 Mobile cameras

These cameras are displayed with the following symbol:
