GPS Speed Sentry
GPS Speed Sentry 1.57 (Shareware) - GPS Travel Software
Tchart Development does not endorse driving at excessive
speed but like many we have been nabbed going slightly over
the speed limit. GPS Speed Sentry was developed to provide a
subtle warning mechanism that you are exceeding the speed
limit. This is particularly helpful on those long road trips
when you should be watching the road and not your
speedometer.
GPS Speed Sentry is a GPS enabled speed monitor/car computer.
It monitors your current speed and warns you when you are
near or go over one of 6 user defined speed limits, the latest version of the software can also provide warnings about
approaching speed cameras.
It also allows you to view other GPS derived information on a series
of display types. Other information includes
current/top/average speed, a trip meter, an odometer,
elevation, position, bearing and much more.
