Hi
@Drawsy
Welcome to the site.....
As far as I'm Aware.....
(1)... The top info bar only displays when you have Satellite Lock....
(2)... The bottom info bar (Speed) only displays at 5mph +
(3)... Speeding....
If you exceed the speed limit by up to 3 mph
The speed panel turns orange
If you exceed the speed limit by more than 3 mph
The speed panel turns red.

Have you tried a Soft/Drum roll restart on the device ??? This restarts the devices Operating System afresh

Charge the device for at least 2Hrs "OR" have the device plugged into a power supply
Press and hold the on/off button until you hear a drum-roll sound then release the on/off button.
You won’t lose anything; it’s just like rebooting your PC
I use a Soft/drum-roll start after any upgrade large or small.
It’s also useful to keep in mind for sorting out most minor niggles......

True, I experice the same (TT Rider 550). When you are driving a route/ track your device will show your speed and speedlimit. When you are driving without setting a route/ track first, no speed and no speedlimit is shown.0

Thank you for your response, correct nothing appears until you reach at least 5mph which was difficult in my back garden!0

To clarify please, on the Rider 550 how do I display speed limit and current speed in map view when I'm not following a track or route?0

Hi
@Richard_VMCC
See below... A quote from a previous post of mine
Note... If you haven't planned a route/track you will need to manually set the zoom to a reasonable level to suite your requirements....Hi
Out today... Using my GO 520 in the UK
I drove around without route planned
Using the 2D, 3D and the North up Overview Maps
In all three Modes, the device warned of.....
Exceeding the Speed Limit
Fixed Speed cameras
Mobile Speed camera Hot Spots
Average speed camera zones (Motorway)
I can see any reason why.....
Approaching Stationary Queuing Traffic
Red Light Camera... Wouldn't also Show
Any 3rd Party POI you have loaded and set to display on the Map... All display the Tomtom generic Icon OK
I didn't Notice if petrol stations were displayed on the map or not

For general improvement for a NAV 4/5(Wifi) device over the default settings
Always use a Computer voice...
Also....
From the main screen... Tap (.... Menu) -> Setting -> Sounds & Warnings...
Set... 'Warning Type' to... Read Allowed...
(Important... Needs a Computer Voice set in the Voices menu)
Speed Cameras & Hazards... Set to ON
The next 10 Setting ALL set to Always
The next 4 Settings ALL set to ON
The device will now say....
'Fixed Camera'
'Mobile Hot Spot'
Spoken Traffic delays
Red Light Camera
