Red light camera alert problems: direction dependent?

I'd loaded this site's red light camera file into my nuvi 350 and gave it a test. I approached an intersection I knew had a camera, and it gave me the alert.

But on a return trip, the GPS was silent. Why would it give me an alert westbound though the intersection, but not eastbound through the same one?

It is based on the location

It is based on the location of the coordinates.Can you list the location and coordinates you are asking about?

I've seen the same thing on

I've seen the same thing on a couple of intersections near where I live. I think it might be the distance from the actual intersection vs. the alert distance. On some of the larger intersections (4 lanes per side) it seem I have to be closer than the smaller ones.
