About TomTom safety cameras
The TomTom Safety Cameras service warns you about the following camera locations:
 Fixed safety camera locations.
 Speed trap locations.
 Speed trap hotspots.
 Average speed camera locations.
 Speed enforcement zones.
 Red light camera locations.
 Traffic restriction cameras.
The Safety Cameras service also warns you about the following hazards:
 Accident hotspot locations.
To get TomTom services on your TomTom GO SUPREME, you must be connected to the internet.
Important: The Safety Cameras service isn't available in all countries. For example, in France,
TomTom offers a Danger Zone service instead, and in Switzerland, no safety camera services are
permitted at all. In Germany, you are responsible for switching the Safety Cameras service on or
off. The issue of the legality of using safety camera services in Germany and other EU countries is
not unique. You therefore use this service at your own risk. TomTom accepts no liability arising
from the use of this service.
Crossing into another area or country
When you drive into an area or country that does not permit safety camera warnings, your TomTom
GO SUPREME switches the TomTom safety cameras service off. You will not receive safety camera
warnings in those areas or countries.
Some areas or countries permit limited safety camera warnings, for example only warnings for fixed
cameras or warnings for risk zones. Your TomTom GO SUPREME automatically switches to give
limited warnings when you cross into those areas or countries.
Safety camera warnings
Warnings are given as you approach a safety camera. You are warned in several ways:
 A symbol is shown in the route bar and on your route on the map.
 Your distance to the safety camera is shown in the route bar.
 The speed limit at the camera location is shown in the route bar.
 You hear a warning sound as you get near the camera.
 While you are approaching a camera or driving in an average speed zone, your speed is
monitored. If you drive more than 5 km/h or 3 mph over the speed limit the route bar turns red.
If you drive less than 5 km/h or 3 mph over the speed limit the route bar turns orange.
Tip: In the map view or guidance view, you can select a safety camera symbol in the route bar to
see the type of camera, the maximum speed and also the length of an average speed zone. In the
map view, you can also select a safety camera that is shown on your route.
