Hi,
The story goes like this: the provincial local government has decided to deploy mobile speeding cameras on wheels that keep changing locations ( called aka 'flexflitser'), so they are essentially nomadic in nature. About a month ago, one of these mobile cameras crossed my path, so I reported it via the TomTom screen. Two days later, I reported it again, and I suppose others must have reported it as well. I noticed that after an update, it was included. When I passed this mobile camera, my TomTom would warn me. Strangely, after updating my TomTom once or maybe twice since then, the camera has disappeared from TomTom's database, and it no longer warns or alarms me. However, the physical location of the mobile camera on wheels remains exactly the same.
What has happened here? Initially, it was included in TomTom, but now it has vanished from the system. I have reported it again even today. What prompts or triggers TomTom to remove the camera? Is the local government in cahoots with TomTom and informing them to remove it? I don't understand why this camera, located on provincial road N458 in the Netherlands , which is still there physically but no longer in TomTom's database. This is strange. I understand that reporting takes some time and TomTom then incorporates it, but why has it been suddenly taken off? I have noticed this for the last five or six days.
This sets a dangerous precedent because if these mobile cameras on wheels are being removed from the database, a lot of people relying on TomTom will not be alarmed. It gives a false sense of security.
Any ideas, guys?

*PS: fixed cameras are detected fine ....routine as usual.
