You'll not stop it detecting speedcams on the other side of the road, it's not direction-of-travel-sensitive. If you reduce detection angle to 5 percent then it may reduce warnings from other speedcam ... |

I'm still using CheckPOInt 2, no POI sync, and the pocketgpsworld database. I'm not talking about adding to the global database yet, just getting new ones I capture to appear on my display.
