Is there any way to retain the map view in TTN3 over 80MPH?
I find that if I travel at around 80MPH the TTN flickers between screens which can be quite off-putting. Ive looked for a setting but with no luck. |

There is a setting "Safety Speed" I believe thats the one you need to change. |

Hi SoundsAlarming,
to the forum.
SHC is right, it sounds like your “Safety Speed” is set to 80mph.
To change it, go to: Properties | Navigation
The Safety speed is shown in a box in either kph or mph. You can change the value of the Safety speed in the box.
I hope that you’re not driving in the UK! 8O

From a driver workload / visual clutter point of view, I keep my safety speed at 30mph. Beyond that, I find the map is really just visual clutter - my feeling is that you really should be concentrating on observation and your driving, not on a map.
Unlike earlier versions, Navigator 3 displays a junction map on the safety screen when you're getting close to a junction, assuming you don't disable the relevant option. I find this makes a faster safety speed unnecessary.

I find the flicking in and out of the safety screen annoying (they could have built some hysteresis in). I tried navigating in safety screen only mode once, and I didn't really get on with it. I like to be able to see which way the road goes next, although obviously I don't rely on it when tanking on :D |
