As a registered TomTom user I received an email from them with this advice. Thank goodness the warnings are not illegal in Italy.

Unfortunately many speed cameras are placed where they can make the most revenue and this is often where speed limits are not well indicated or somewhat ambiguous.

Both of my last two speed camera fines, one in Switzerland and one in Italy, were for the minimum amount (less than 10 km/h over the limit). In both cases, particularly the one in Switzerland (hidden behind a small roadside structure) they were 50 km/h zones but on open roads with excellent vision and outside of the inhabited area, and in both cases only a short distance from a change to 70 or 90 km/h banghead

At least in Italy no loss of points for an infraction of less than 10 km/h over the limit.

In general I am pretty careful about keeping the speed limit and now use the TomTom app AmiGO. I am sure it is not perfect but it does give speed limit warnings and "safety" camera warnings where it is legal to do so. It still needs to be used with care because some speed limits are not correct, particularly if there have been recent changes. It would be nice if they combined it with speed sign recognition.
