I note that my TOmTOm overspeed alert warning is too late. In a 20 mph limit the speed panel turns red at 23 but the warning sound stays silent until 25. This is too late as police in Wales enforce at 24/25. Yesterday I hit 25 in a 20 twice in a 12 mile trip but didn't notice as I was watching what was going on outside the car. Many of the 30 mile limits I have been driving for decades are now 20 limits.

I have asked this before but surely there must be a way to have the warning sound off when the speed warning turns red at 23.

Help.

The overspeed alert is triggered above 5 km/h, so it is not possible to modify it.
 
But 5 km/h is 3 mph so the alert should sound. As mentioned the overspeed warning does turn red at 23 mph but the warning sound does not activate until 25 mph which is 8km/hour.

Does this mean the unit is faulty?

Has anyone else seen this problem?

Thanks for your response.
 
Sometimes it's because you're going way over the speed limit.

I suggest you reset the device to factory settings.
I don't know if that helps?
