I know that nowadays many taxis do have satellite navigation, but I had a hackney carriage a couple of weeks ago who did not know the place I was going to in the town! I couldn’t help either as I was a visitor, so the driver was stopping every so often to ask passers-by for directions-not what you need in a rush!

Is there any reason (other than cost, that would be recouped in the long run in time petrol from fewer incorrect routes taken) why licensing authorities shouldn’t insist on sat nav for every taxi/private hire driver?

I would like to find out what sat nav the ambulance service use, as sometimes the use of the same sat nav to pin point addresses in rural places is of great use. Especially Farms etc

I am travelling to France next week from the UK and have been reading that Radar Detection equipment is illegal in France. I may be having a dumb moment, but is a Sat Nav with GPS speed camera detection the same as Radar Detection? I don’t want to break any French laws.

Thanks in advance for any answers given.

How current would the maps be on a navman s70, I plan to buy a sat nav soon, would the maps be up to date.Are the maps easy and cheap to update.

lynzmk asked:


is there a gadget available like a battery you can use instead, portable so can use in teh car and plug sat nav into it to charge? because without a cigarette lighter in my car my sat nav only lasts 2 hours which is no use for a long journey!

Looking to buy a sat nav and am finding it hard to choose. Tomtom seems quite popular with people. Indago takes you on strange roads. Which would you recommend and why?
Thank you.

i was towing my caravan home and the sat nav in its great wisdom took me through the penrith hills at 1903ft. not a good idea at all.
So is there any sat navs out there that can avoid steep hills etc.or is it better to plan with a normal map and use the sat nav as a back up.

Katie F asked:


My car’s speedometer says I’m going faster than my sat nav says I’m going.

Which one is likely to be the more accurate?
My petrol gauge is about a quarter of a tank out, so I’m not sure any of my car’s dials can be trusted!
