Where does my car get this info to tell me. You know the "red light speed camera ahead" warning. Does it 'detect' it upcoming?

It’s part of the roadway database on the SD Card. You have Nav, correct?

It’s only as current as the last database version.
 
I think it is part of the Sirus traffic app.
So I don't have the Sirius subscription, but it seems I still have access to the weather and such, right? And if what yur UR your you're saying is right, then I still have some of the Sirius functionality?
 
There is a place in the infosystem to look at the subscriptions stuff that comes from Sirus, don't remember which. I have noticed mine shows traffic status ever once and a while without a subscription but a few days later it is gone...
 
Yes, with My signature. Thanks
To verify that it comes from Nav, pop the SD card out before starting the car and drive through a known light or speed camera. If it doesn’t sound off like previously, then you know from whence it comes.
 
Hmmm, now that I think of it, I almost never get those alerts, like maybe once a month. But what is odd is that one day I will get it at the same intersection where I have never got the alert before - and that's at an intersection I am at every day.
 
NO red light speed camera ahead in HUD, and NO sound warning unless guidance volume is turned up.
How useless can it be :rolleyes::unsure::rolleyes:
