Does not tell you the speed limit that you should be going at. Camera/hotspot site does not detect cameras properly.


General Comments

The Road Angel in my opinion is not worth the money (£350 to £399). The Road Angel was registered and updated as per instructions but simply did not detect the cameras as claimed. I travel around the country in my job and in the two days that I owned the Road Angel, covered about 600 miles. First trip to Norfolk and passed about six cameras, Road Angel detected about three gatso's and went past a mobile camera without detection and went past a couple of gatso's without detection. Second trip to London was a joke, six spec's cameras undetected (M1 Leicester Junction) which have been there for a couple of months now, four false alarms on cameras that weren't even there, and countless gatso's undetected. I even went past a mobile van camera waiting for it to tell me it was there but didn't. Was this a faulty detector? I don't know but what I do know is that I am very disappointed with this model. Got a refund.

    Fool!
    Firstly your unit was probably not updated with the correct up to date database at the time, secondly, the reason it does not always pick up lazer type speed traps is purely down to the fact that you were not being targeted at the time of approach.
    Just because there is a mobile detection unit parked up somewhere, it doesn't automatically mean that the radio signal is being continually transmitted and directed towards each and every vehicle that approaches it.
    They randomly select vehicles and it is only when your vehicle, (or perhaps one immediately in front of you), is being targeted, that your Road Angel will alert you to the fact.
    Instruction manuals are quite handy when read...!!!
