how do you report map errors?

Maybe a lot of people just don't have the time so Here mapping are unaware.

If no one here reported cameras the database would be empty.

Well I've rarely spotted an error in Garmin's mapping and I've used it for 10 years or more. I can only recall 2, both in France, one where a new dual carriageway made another road a dead end, and another where a new road was on the map a month or so before it was opened.

Wonder where you are travelling as you seem to be finding far more errors than I've come across in 10 years of using Garmins, both here and in Europe and the US.

I seem to recall a post, many years ago, where some map errors are due to the Garmin not fully resetting after a map update.

The solution was a full master reset and the OP at the time reported - job done.

or am I dreaming

Possibly not. Certainly after a software or map update a reset is advised if the device no longer works the way you previously experienced.

Never driven there. Maybe Scottish councils etc aren't good at updating the relevant databases?

If 'Here' have it correct, which in this case seems to be mainly one way streets, then I would try the Garmin full master reset.

Have a look at https://mobile.here.com/ It's very speedy loading and zooming.

A road priority near my house was changed a couple of months ago and it's already shown.

Garmin only update their maps infrequently (4 times a year max) from HERE, who are at it all the time.
