Software upgrade degraded it
It was really good but then I upgraded the software. Now I can't turn off speed zone change alerts. It will flash and beep that I'm in a 40 school zone when it's 9pm at night? Called customer support and they told me I shouldn't be speeding?? I can be driving under 60 and it will flash and beep that I'm approaching a 60 zone. Very distracting. I can turn off all alerts, but then I don't get speed camera alerts, I can't turn them off selectively anymore. The hardware is really good but software ruins it.
Purchased in August 2021 at Ryda.com Online store for $297.85.

I have purchased one of the Garmin Drive Smart 65 ; in all honesty I love it.
This is my third Garmin unit; this is the best of the three.
My problem is that even when the sound is on full volume its takes some concentrating to hear the directions. Meaning if the car radio is on soft and or their is general traffic during the day I really have to listen. I would say that this unit when on full volume is equivalent to around 60 percent of the sound volume of my last unit. The last unit I had, 3790 was almost too loud on full volume. I am not deaf nor need to wear an hearing aid. Garmin have asked me to record a video of the volume at its fullest and then the same with the 3790 model. Not so easy but will do it. Anyone of you tech people have an answer. I have updated the unit. Cheers Bob
