Average speed check camera warnings 
There are several types of visual and audible warnings that you may see and hear when you meet an 
average speed check camera. 
You always receive a start and end zone warning regardless of the speed you are travelling at. 
Intermediate warnings, if given, occur every 200 meters. 
All the warnings are described below: 
  
Start of zone warning 
As you approach the start of an average speed check zone, you see a 
visual warning in the top left hand corner of the Driving View with a 
distance to the camera underneath it. You hear an audible warning. 
You also see a small icon on the road showing the position of the average 
speed check camera at the start of the zone. 
  
Intermediate warning - type 1 
Once in the speed check zone, if you are not speeding and have already 
received a start of zone warning, you see a visual warning in the Driving 
View. This reminds you that you are still in the speed check zone. 
  
Intermediate warning - type 2 
Once in the speed check zone, if you are driving faster than the permitted 
speed and have already received a start of zone warning, you see a visual 
warning in the Driving View indicating the maximum permitted speed. You 
also hear a quiet audible warning. These warnings are there to remind you 
to slow down... 
  
Intermediate warning - type 3 
Once in the speed check zone, if you are driving faster than the permitted 
speed and have not received a start of zone warning, you see a visual 
warning in the Driving View indicating the maximum permitted speed. You 
also hear a loud audible warning. 
These warnings occur at the FIRST intermediate point only and are there 
to remind you to slow down... 
  
End of zone warning 
As you approach the end of an average speed check zone, you see a visual 
warning in the Driving View with a distance to the camera shown 
underneath it. You hear an audible warning.

speed check camera at the end of the zone.
