I hope someone can point me in the right direction.

I have booked a road trip around Europe in June and will be visiting France, Monaco, Italy, Switzerland, Austria, Lichtenstein, Germany, Luxembourg and Belgium in the course of my trip.

First question is where can I find out whether my Pogo Alert covers these countries?

And secondly, where can I find out what the laws are relating to the use of speed camera detectors in these countries?

Many thanks in advance. smile

You can go to settings and there is a region option.

I found out that it switches to your present country (if available) automatically, but you can't navigate between locations in different countries.

As to laws. I know France and Switzerland have extreme laws against speed trap detectors - heavy fines and destruction of device if found. Just make sure you have it on the sat nav screen if you're ever stopped ...

just re-read you have a Alert, not a Drive.

Can't answer if this will work outside the UK.
