Thanks for that!

The issue I have with photo radar on highways is that the women who drive huge SUVs (twice or three times bigger than an X5) with a mobile glued to their head love photo radar. When people drive fast they have to drop their mobile phone and pay attention to their driving. With the photo radar in place, they feel comfortable driving a 6,500 lb truck around at 60MPH while not paying attention.

I am pushing hard to ban mobile phone use while driving in Arizona. The first piece of legislation is to ban use, with a $10,000 and 1 month in jail first time penalty. The other is to legalize drunken driving if mobile phone use is not made illegal - just to raise the point that it is lunacy to outlaw drunken driving while allowing mobile use while driving.

Hi - this is for those MINI owners that have not got this working...

I found that you need to make an addition to the ENG.LSC file in order to include the Speed Cameras for the MINI. Here is a section of that file: I have highlighted the parts concerning the MINI and in RED is the code that needs to be added. It appears that on starting the menu the car knows its type and hence goes to a certain menu tree. Whereas BMW would go to GRP-2 the MINI would go to GRP-3 and hence miss the 104 category as it pulls line 80 instead of 70.

Hope that helps you - it now works for me :)

Hi Rakh1,

Thanks a lot for this. When the new 2007 map disc is out and I make an update, I will include this information for Mini owners.

Microsoft Autoroute map with all UK speed, redlight, temp and mobile cameras
 

If anyone is interested in the Microsoft Autoroute map with all UK speed, redlight, temp and mobile cameras, it is now included here.

These maps are copyrighted. You'd better hope that Navteq and Microsoft don't come and knock on your door...

Is that an observation, or a criticism?

Man, downloading these files is a bit fiddley!! Anyone got it onto emule yet? I am not complaining... just wondering if it was in one place before I pay for this multifile downloading thing from Rapidshare.

Oh... also... Chris_h, any chance of changing your dog avatar? It gives me the jeebies!!

Certainly not. He's my favourite. He used to watch my wife undressing whilst licking his lips. That got rid of her pretty quickly!!!;)
