I been meaning to ask this for a while now. I open the Speed Camera CSV file in Excel and do a find and replace to add a '@' to the speed. This gives me an alert if I'm driving faster than the camera's setting. I've noticed that there are several entries for Mobile Speed Cameras and I wonder why they are included? No problem but the idea behind having a mobile camera is move it around so drivers don't know where it is located. Why list a mobile camera's location if it can be moved during the next day/hour/minute?

Miss POI explained that in this topic:
Miss POI, you have done a lot of research on enforcement cameras, what is your take on these mobile units? I believe Avondale is around your neighborhood as well.

I am actually in Boise Idaho;) I have added a couple of the mobile speed units that are always stationed at the same spot.

Thanks Gary, I missed that thread.
If they are always stationed at the same location, then why don't they have speed limits listed with them? Never mind, not important.
