EDMONTON — Drivers using Google Maps are getting a last-minute warning as they approach some photo radar camera locations.
It also gives a verbal warning — an automated voice saying “speed camera ahead” — when drivers are near a fixed speed camera.“The biggest thing we love … is we place those by collision statistics,” said Sgt. Joerg Gottschling of the Calgary Police Service traffic section. “If we do a new site, if we are going to install a new camera, the next site is always selected by the next highest crash site.
Google said in an email that there will also be an ability for android users to report mobile speed cameras and stationary cameras.
