How do I see more than one Geofence at a time?

What are Geofence Speeding Alerts?
Geofence Speeding alerts are triggered when the device is reporting a speed over the set threshold within a geofence.
You can use the geofences you already have in place or create a new geofence for specific spots such as school zones, construction zones, or temporary roads. Geofence alerts help keep an eye on speed where it really counts.
You can set a customizable speed alert limit within a designated geofenced area to monitor how current speeds compare to the set threshold. This solution is particularly ideal for zones with lower speed limits, ensuring adherence to safety regulations.
