Be so good if it was updateable with known mobile sites too. I'd happily have 'false alarms' if the mobile site isn't in position and I'd slowed to the limit regardless. Despite that it's good value for money.

I still say that as a basic tool the Woollies job is VFM but I'd rather spend more on one that does everything myself.

What do I do if I encounter an unknown risk area?
If you come across an unlisted risk area when travelling, use the "Insert" key on the top of your INFORAD. It will then record the exact location of this new point.
When you next make an update, the software will ask you to define this point. You can choose one of 3 descriptions:
Personal point
Unlisted risk area
Location of a mobile speed trap
The last two categories will be uploaded automatically during the update process, ready for checking and authenticating by our teams and adding to the INFORAD Central Database as appropriate.
Thanks to your contributions, this new information can then be shared by all the other users and make INFORAD even more efficient.

My INFORAD
The processing power of the Inforad microprocessor enables the owner to record additional information on the unit.
If you encounter a new speed camera, simply hold down the right hand function key and the location of the camera will be recorded on your Inforad. The next time you pass this location the unit will beep twice and flash the orange LED.
If you encounter road works or a variable speed zone your Inforad can be set to warn you if you exceed a given speed. You can activate this function by holding down the two central buttons for 2 seconds at any given speed. If you then exceed this speed Inforad will bleep and flash to warn you to reduce your speed. To cancel the feature hold down the two buttons for 2 seconds.
Use the same key to record areas where you may wish to be given advance warning of a potential speed area such as:
Well known mobile speed camera locations
Low speed areas such as schools
Accident black spots
Screen shot
When you next plug your Inforad into your PC you can then allocate a reference icon against the location and a speed limit. This information is then uploaded automatically to the central Inforad database, although you have the option restricting certain personal user defined points from being uploaded.
Our mobile engineers will then validate any new camera locations and release them to the general database for other customers to download.

but....
Does INFORAD warn about places where the police forces use mobile laser detectors and mobile radar systems?
No, because most of these places are not often actually in use, and they often change. The result would be to give out alerts far too frequently, and generally to no purpose. However, with INFORAD you can programme as many personal positions as you like. This means you can build your own database of potential speed trap areas.
