I am finding whilst driving on Belgium motorways that theirs hardly any fixed speed camera warnings coming up. Passed a few cameras but no warning. Reluctant to renew subscription due to this. I know the problem with France and Switzerland. Does this apply to Belgium. Years ago it was very accurate in Belgium. |

am using Europe down load. Have been using pocket GPS some years now, but only seems to be 2018 lack of cameras. Have found lots of cameras removed and new cameras installed at different places. These are the ones that dont come up.

If you submit the locations then you may qualify for a free year subscription. That's how this database works - it's crowd-sourced and relies on people like you to submit any missing locations.

Yes I know about informing of cameras which are not identified. The question is, should the new camera positions on the motorways in Belgium be identified as showing on the latest updates?

Only if they have been reported, then they have to be verified. Not sure how they do that in the EU. I noticed several fixed cameras when travelling to Ypres last November, didn't get a chance to record them though _________________ Garmin Drivesmart 51 LMT-D Europe |

Still using 2017, but still had the same problem then as well now. These are major motorways. Would expect these to be up to date. |

I'm surprised that you feel a database over a year and a half old could be up to date? _________________ Where there's a will ... there's a way. |

How do you expect us to update a database on your computer that was downloaded 18 months ago?!
What are you using to check when you say the current database is missing the locations?

But you're using a copy of our database from August 2017 and comparing it to a current database from SCDB in 2019.
Can you honestly not see what the issue is here?! |

Can see what you are saying, but in 2017 I was having the same observations .you might be aware that there a few defunct camera just sitting there.This is why I was asking the question about accurate updayes. |
