System is working brill - it was last tuesday from Chesterfield to Stockport that i realised the problem - major accident at baslow ? - reroute came up but checked icon first to see road closed just as i hit the back of a long que.
Checked the DETAILS and found a lot more info than the INFO screen gave ie : instead of (accidents)( between ? /? on INFO screen (DETAILS) gave (serious accident road will be closed for approx 3hrs)
That information was better, I was back in Blackpool before the road was cleared without to much of a diversion.
Someone i was with in chesterfield with that lives in Stockport was stuck on the tailback for 2hrs +

Can't understand why
2005 - RX300 se - SAT NAV
When GPS icons are showing you can only get to ( INFO) when moving
The sub-page ( DETAILS ) can't be accessed - this page tells you more about the problem to make assessment before re-routing !
Or have a got settings wrong

2005 RX300SE
I have only noticed green !
-
Is this normal ?
When in cruise operation braking drops cruise - Hit Resume and speed returns to setting.
However if you (say) turn corner at a roundabout then hit Resume nothing happens without Hitting set again once you reach the speed you want.
I have had auto cruise cars for 20yrs and usually providing your speed is above 25-30mph resume means resume to previous speed !
My previous GS 300 Resumed to set speed after turning steering wheel but New RX dosn't
Please confirm

My Mark
S40GGY
(My nick name for 40+ years)
so when S Reg came out it was the obvious choice
With open 4 it looks right on my last 4 cars
I keep getting stopped even thought the spacing matchs the log book
Upto now i have not been legally challenged by officers once i show the logbook copy i always keep in car & tax disc represention
But it would nice to know the real answer.
NB:
My new RX300 will be delivered in about 12 hours and i have my plates ready

Q:
Is an open four acceptable for a registration prior 2001 ammendments:
The Swansea Logbook printer is the only computer i know that prints open 4
Therefore when a tax disc is hand written why do the PO Clerks use an open four
( check it out if you have a 4 in your Reg )!
A:
Official Response following being stopped for incorrect number plate
Thank you for your email regarding the above, in particular the registration mark given. Whilst I fully appreciate your concerns, I must stress that the Government takes the matter of misrepresented registration marks very seriously. Unfortunately,the misrepresentation of registration marks is a growing problem. The practice can make vehicles difficult to identify and can hamper police efforts to trace vehicles involved in incidents such as hit and run collisions or serious crimes. The deciphering of mis-spaced or corrupted registration marks stretches police resources and in some instances makes it impossible to prosecute the perpetrators of serious offences. The Road Vehicles (Display of Registration Marks) Regulations 2001, as amended, prescribe the requirements for displaying registration marks on number plates. Anyone who contravenes or fails to comply with these regulations is guilty of anoffence by virtue of section 59 of the Vehicle Excise and Registration Act 1994. Section 23 of that same Act empowers the Secretary of State to withdraw anassigned registration mark in such circumstances as he may determine. These powers and prescribed requirements form the basis of the arrangements,which DVLA operates in conjunction with the Police for tackling the problem of misrepresented registration marks. It would be unreasonable and legally questionable for DVLA to seek to withdraw a registration mark on the basis of anallegation that the relevant legislation had been breached. There must be hardevidence, for example a fixed penalty fine/police photographs, that such anoffence has occurred before this action is taken. The Government sell the right to display a personalised registration mark. The DVLA Sale of Marks (SOM) scheme began in 1989 and for many years DVLA took the view that certain registrations were best withheld from sale if they relied on misrepresentation for the attractiveness. In recent times, however, we have adopted a more relaxed approach towards the type of registration that we offer for sale. This changes has been possible as a result of the 'DisplayRegulations' which introduced tighter requirements for numberplates, including amandatory font style for the characters which make up the registration mark. Whilst it is recognised that the font used on official DVLA stationery maydiffer slightly from the prescribed font for registration marks, there is nointention to encourage the purchaser to misrepresent the registration mark. The SOM scheme operates under the Sale of Registration Marks Regulations 1995,as amended. These regulations make no special provisions for the display ofregistration marks which have been acquired through the sales scheme. This isbecause all vehicle registration marks, including those originating from the SOMscheme, are subject to separate legislation once they have been assigned tovehicles by virtue of the Vehicle Excise and Registration Act 1994. Currently,that separate legislation is the 'Display Regulations'. DVLA considers that it would be failing in its duty of care if it neglected toadvise customers of the SOM scheme of their responsibilities and liabilities forthe display of registration marks on vehicles. This is why we refer to thedisplay requirements during the telesales process, in auction catalogues and onthe SOM website. Customers are actively discouraged from buying if theirintention is to display the number illegally. They are advised of the possibleconsequences of doing so. Although the legislation referred to earlier in my correspondence came intoforce on 1 September 2001 applies to vehicles registered on or after that date,it also applies to replacement registration marks fitted to vehicles,irrespective of the date of registration.I trust this clarifies the position
Yours sincerely.

No it didn't answer my question !
WHAT DO YOU THINK ?

Can anyone give me advice
For some time I have been obsessed with cars and to be honest
hadn't noticed the change in my Wife.
About six months ago she started spending money on herself buying new
clothes every week, rather than allowing me to spend whatever I
wanted on my car.
She started going out virtually every Tuesday & Friday night, with
some friends from the local Gym which she joined about Five months
ago, Leaving me to polish my car in the warmth of the garage.
Any how to get to the point at Christmas she went out most nights and
starting coming home later and later – for some reason I suddenly
thought that maybe there might be more to her sudden change in
hairstyle and the very provocative new outfit she bought.
So last week I followed her on foot to the local restaurant were she
told me she was going to meet her friends.
I saw her go in - but when I looked through the window, I spotted her
going straight out of the back door !.
I quickly walked through the bar and out onto the back car park only
to see a smart looking Lexus speeding away with a man driving and
blonde women that was the spitting image of my wife.
I went back inside to check if she had just nipped to the ladies but
after half an hour decided she wasn't coming back.
So I went home to finish cleaning the car, At about 2.30am she had
not returned so went for a drive round town to see if I could find
her. I parked up down the road from the only nightclub that was still
open and walked past the front of the club ( to have a quick look if
I could see her ).
On the way back I spotted her coming out with a Tall/Muscled/Dark
haired-Hunk, They were walking down the street towards me & my car.
I quickly crouched down behind my car and then spotted a nasty
scratch directly under the back door sill, As you could imagine I was
distraught.
Even Though it's a deep scratch do you think I should attempt to
repair it myself or get a professional to carryout the Job ?.
Yours
Shoggy
