Flexibility of Speed Alerts
-
Hey everyone,
Due to increased police checkpoints in Germany (officially anounced), I’d like to (have to) turn off the speed camera warning but still want to receive alerts when I’m speeding.
Unfortunately, as far as I know, these two settings can’t be adjusted independently of each other.
So it’s either illegal with speed alerts or completely off.
In my opinion, this linkage doesn’t make any logical sense.
So my proposal is to have the option to set both settings independently.
Best, Axel

In countries where it’s not allowed (such as Germany) you can leave it to “all” as we don’t even warn you about the camera’s. We don’t know where they are (as it’s not allowed)

Hi Corjan,
thanks for your reply.
It might be technical true, that no radar alerts are issued. But why not adjusting those settings, so that they are logical?
Jörgen answered in the German selfservice forum, that the police is not allowed to open a navigation software to check wether the warner is active.
From a strictly legal standpoint, that’s certainly correct. But what’s the atmosphere during a checkpoint, say, in the Harz Mountains? When I watch the relevant YouTube videos, there’s always a certain feeling of tension in the air.
That’s why I’d like to see this issue properly addressed in MRA. So I’ve submitted this proposal for improvement.
I'm pretty sure, that this adjustment in the settings is no rocket science.
Best, Axel

No, definitely not but is that currently a priority?
As said, we don't warn at all for countries where this is not allowed. Therefore there is no real issue.
Moves it down the priority list quite quickly. This setting exists for multiple years and not ever someone requested a change. Not saying it's a bad request but definitely not something that needs be altered immediately. -

I understand completely, that my request has a low priority. That's ok.
Sometimes miracles occur and those requests were solved even when having a low priority.
