Okay, as I said yesterday in another post, I have to contribute some scheckells to the consolidated revenue of the SA government after my little indiscretion (thanks to the Aussie cricket team!!).
Now I've decided I need to get a speed alert gizmo (I'm not keen on cruise control in a manual; but it's still an option I'm willing to look at if need be).
But it struck me when I was trying to get to sleep last night, that the Nuvi (as
well as numerous other GPS nav systems) has the 2 basic requirements to do waht I need. It records the speed VERY accurately (so much so that the Max Speed on the Nuvi agreed exactly with the good officer's radar) and it has a little voice inside it that tells me where to go!!
So, this begs the question..... can I program that little sheila inside the Nuvi to give me a verbal reminder that I'm being a naughty boy? I don't see anything in the various menus, but I have been known to be less than perfect when it comes to understanding these ingenious electronic gadgets.....

The answer is NO, but it will warn you of RLCs, Sp Cams, Schools, ...if you upload the required files into it,
Mine has the Garmin Talking warnings for RLCs etc , .but what you need is this .
EVO Road Angel
I don't use
mine anymore , not in the cities , going cheap.
And the little tart inside your GPS won't tell tell you when your speeding but the copper will...
