"Stick to it on the straights and warp speed on the bends" seems to work very well for me for the past 12 yrs :D

Downloaded RADARBOT and gave it a try. Was pretty good picking up red light and speed cameras. On a couple of occasions a warning interrupted the music I was listening to, but couldn't see the sneaky one. At the end of the F3 on the Sydney end, there was a highway patrol car scanning number plates and warning didn't come through. Also another cop car was "interviewing" a client and no warning sounded. Shall test further. Might download WAZE and see how that goes... What attracts me to these is that predominantly they are GPS devices with a "happy ending" when they work....

What you saying Javaman makes sense of course, however its a great feeling when warning sounds and you can respond :kuda:

I use waze every day. It’s great.
But only as good as the info people enter.
You can’t pinpoint a cop car that’s moving. Only a parked one.

But it’s great to have running in the background, also has Spotify integrated, so that’s a bonus.

I'll be interested to hear your observations mate.

Wattie, do you know if Waze can be operated on voice command? In my opinion once that's a reality, then it'll take a massive leap toward being the ultimate.
