Camera types
There are different types of Road Safety Cameras.

looking in one direction, measuring one or both
directionsofthetrafc.Theymeasureyourcurrent
speed. For these speed cameras you can specify
thecontrolledtrafcdirectionandthespeedlimit.

check a preset speed limit. The warning is similar
