Woke up to find my trusty Tom Tom Speed Camera app has been replaced with Tom Tom Amigo.
Has anyone got any experience with it. I'm guessing its a Beta version.
I liked the original, so I'll have to get used to this one.

I have to agree with all of that.
A step backwards.
I really don't like Waze though.
Suppose I'll have to persevere!

I travelled to Liverpool from Leeds today. Tom tom Amigo had every 50 average zone as a 40.

What would you say 'Just over the limit is?
I had 53 on my tomtom (55 on my speedo) all the way through and was constantly overtaken.

What people report being 'done at just over the limit' is not necessarily what they were actually doing...but we've seen apocryphal posts on here of people getting multiple tickets for some stretches claiming they were only only doing 53-55mph!!!

If that was on their speedo, then I'm very surprised as that's probably 49-53mph in real life.
Yes, I've done my thing ever since Average limits were introduced. Never had a problem, and have read of people going through at 10mph over never getting a ticket.
Professional drivers,reps HGV'S etc. seem to know the score!
And cars do pass me all of the time.
Must admit though, if there is anyone actually
working at the roadside, I dont do it. However that is very rare!
I read in social media that the leeway has been reduced because of zero revenue, due to lockdown. But I read all sorts of st on there which is mostly untrue?
