Road Angel database is split into four areas, namely Fixed, Mobile, Average and Blackspot. The LCD display shows which area you are approaching and you can also store your own and new locations to any menu area.
FIXED For permanently sited Gatso and Truvelo cameras.
MOBILE For temporary mobile cameras (often motorway roadworks) or user known laser sites.
AVERAGE For SPECS average speed detection cameras
BLACKSPOT Police and Local Authority designated repeat accident areas - take extra care
GPS Utilising the latest Global Positioning Satellites (GPS), a powerful internal aerial identifies the precise location, speed and direction of your vehicle.
ADVANCED WARNING When approaching a known danger zone, the LCD display turns from green to red and the type of danger is highlighted. The bar counter starts to count up as the danger area gets closer. An audible tone is emitted, the frequency increasing with proximity. Once the location is passed the unit returns to standby.
EASY UPDATES With the number of speeding cameras set to dramatically increase and accident data changing constantly, Blackspot Interactive are constantly working to verify new locations and delete obsolete ones. These changes are easily updated to your ROAD ANGEL with the supplied software. The first year of updates is free of charge with an annual subscription thereafter of £49 for one year, two years at £79 and for a lifetime subscription the cost is £99.
PERSONALISATION The standard settings can all be user adjusted. New locations can be stored, current locations deleted, warning range and volume adjusted or muted and various other features

With roads becoming busier and
the pace of life intensifying, the need for
enhanced driver safety has never been greater. These factors combined with
the
increasing use of speed cameras just add to the pressure on today’s
motorist.
The UK’s No1 brand has been
further developed to push the boundaries of
technology and functionality to provide even greater road safety and
protection.
Blackspot Interactive’s David Clark explains the reasoning behind the new
product: “Over the last 2 years, since we launched Road Angel, we’ve seen
our
roads becoming busier, more congested and dangerous. The new Road Angel
provides highly visual and audible alerts and will continue to be the best
safety
aid for motorists, reducing accidents, fines and points.”
Blackspot Interactive has pioneered the use of accident blackspot data in
Road
Angel, and their latest offering now alerts drivers of all fixed speed
cameras,
temporary roadwork cameras, safety camera team vans, hand held laser, school
zones and congestion charging areas. Indeed, an independent I million mile
fleet
test has proved that business drivers using Road Angel have 50% fewer
accidents and are 74% less likely to receive further endorsements.
New Road Angel now features a magnetic, quick release windscreen and
dashboard mounted fixing, continuing the fully portable nature which
customers
prefer. Following product research, particular attention has been paid to
the
ergonomics of the screen and buttons. The new Road Angel now has a large
graphical backlit display (blue/red) and soft touch, easy-use buttons.
Whilst the
screen now displays additional information like compass, clock and GPS
coverage, the warnings are still straightforward and simple. Uncluttered,
instantly recognisable warning icons, proximity and speed display allow the
driver to adjust their driving in accordance with the oncoming hazard.
Unlike radar systems, Road Angel is programmed to respond solely to relevant
dangers in the driver’s direction of travel. Consequently, false alarms are
eliminated, meaning if a speed camera or blackspot is located on the
opposite
carriageway, Road Angel will not respond. The new Road Angel comes complete
with integrated front and rear Laser Alert feature, designed to alert the
driver to
any laser speed detection system targeting them.
Road Angel is capable of storing up to 50,000 unique locations and aims to
provide the driver with the very latest data at all times. This is achieved
through
regular USB internet downloads from the Blackspot central database, which is
frequently updated with data from the latest information collated from
Police,
Local Authority, DOT and Blackspot Interactives’ own support team. Customers
with older PC’s can still do serial updates with an optional lead (£9.95)
Furthermore, Road Angel can be personalised; drivers can store specific
locations known to them to safeguard against danger zones on regular
journeys.
Road Angel is simple to use, effective and safe. The latest, easy to use
unit is
highly stylish, teamed with a tactile rubberised facia; this new edge design
complements the interior of any car. Fitting too could not be easier; the
robust
unit is designed to sit on a new windscreen mounted, multi-angle fixture and
is
powered by the vehicle’s cigar lighter and, for security, is fully portable
when not
in use.
Road Angel comes complete with power leads, USB update lead, windscreen and
dashboard mounting kit and full instructions
