Australian 2010.20 map bugs


I have updated Garmin map to 2010.20. I found some error route and wrong speed alert during travelled in Queensland Australia.

First of all, bugs of Australian Map
M1 HWY beside Brisbane airport, the road has already been completed, however, the GPS does not show that part of HWY. For example, from Brisbane to Redcliff, if use M1 toll way, the GPS only gives the route to pass big bridge beside the airport, then wrongly guides to other road, actually there are not other roads can choose.


Secondly, Wrong speed alert, on A1 road and sunshine Hwy, the speed limit is 100 on the road, but the GPS speed alert warning is 80.


Hope this notice will help someone who travel in Queensland Australia.

Finally, Happy New Year to everybody and POI moderators.

Yes, the problems are not limited to QLD, it's also in Brisbane. I suspect we won't see these fixed until next year 2011 at least. This is my experience with maps to date. Anyway they are always behind by at least one year and sometimes three. With this in mind we all need to be vigilant as the posted signs are the only ones that matter in court.

Updates to Garmin maps are avail. around 4 times a year ( or every 3 months )
Even better if you sign up (pay) for a life-time map updates. (Don't know if this option is still available )
