Does Navigation Override Proximity Alerts?

 

I think the answer is no. Navigation and Proximity Alerts should work together.

I am asking this because while I was navigating to a destinating, the GPS didn't warn me of a redlight camera.

On the way back, without the navigation, the GPS warned me of the same redlight camera.

if it was just 1

if it was just a single camera it may have been where the coordinates were, but normally they work together. I think the only times I've had an "override" is when they both come up at the same time. Then Nav will take precedence. Jill starts speaking at 600 feet before the turn with a camera set to alert at 600 feet type of thing.

They work together.What is

They work together.What is the location of the camera or the coordinates?Most coordinates are set for the middle of the road.If the coordinate is more then 50 ft of the road of travel you would not get the alert.We can put the coordinates on Google Maps or Google Earth to check them.

Navigation takes priority over proximity

I just experienced this on a nuvi 265T:

The alarm "speed camera ahead" became "speed take next exit camera ahead".

Thanks for clearing it up

Thanks for clearing it up for me.

I think the problem was that I was traveling on a divided road and the Northbound side had the camera identified, but the Southbound side had the camera missing on the database.

I was travelling South towards the intersection. When I was coming back I was traveling East, towards the intersection.

I'm going to submit the missing camera location.

Thanks!
