We all use the road angel to help others and in return get info on scamera locations. The mobile camera setting, what is it for? I know it is used on road works with Gatsos but what about van locations? Driving through Leicestershire they use a lot of the same places and it would it be good to share these?

If I stored one does it get added to the general database? I know it would give false alarms but at least you could look ahead to confirm or ignore the reminder?

The mobile setting is for the scameravans. Better to have th odd alert when there is nothing there than not to get one and get caught

Blackspot/Road Angel told me some time ago that if we log a mobile site on the Road Angel, it is not added to the general database

exactly, what a missed opportunity. I know that the number would build up but at what cost? Most people who look out of the windscreen can see a camera but the way the vans hide and look like many others on the road. open to being court (double meaning)

So where do the mobile camera database entries come form then?

If you have a laser jammer plugged into your RA, the Mobile warning comes up when it gets a hit.

Apparently. I wouldn't really know.
