Use this setting to control whether road sign information is read aloud as part of navigation
instructions. For example, "Turn left onto A302 Bridge Street towards Islington."
Read aloud street names
Use this setting to control whether street names are read aloud as part of navigation instruc-
tions. For example, when street names are read aloud, you hear "Turn left Graham Road to-
wards Hackney."
Read aloud foreign street names

rate.
