My V1 does all that, and also identifies every set of automatic doors in the entire metro area. The directional arrows are very useful in identifying whether Walmart is to my left, right, behind, or ahead of me. And that's after I put it full logic mode to shut off the additional 10,000 warnings on the X band, and with a Savvy unit to make it shut up under 45 mph. I think it actually even found a cop once or twice. It's useful but I drive slower than before because it's always screaming at me. It's either that or ignore it. I want a New Escort with GPS to lock out the cr@p.
