Garasjetid.no is Norway's largest online store for car care and maintenance. In connection with Safedrive launching new software for its customers, Garasjetid has taken a look at what's new.

Bjørn-Aage from Garasjetid tests the latest update from Safedrive.

Bjørn-Aage Bredal from Garasjetid has taken the wheel to show his YouTube followers the very latest update for Safedrive Pro. The updated software allows users to activate a main screen displaying the current speed limit at their location, combined with a speedometer showing their own speed. With data from the National Road Database, users will now have access to yet another feature that provides increased control along the road.

Bredal himself uses Safedrive Pro, and explains what he particularly likes about the traffic alarm.

- What I really like about Safedrive is that it shows me section speed controls and my average speed. It's easy to get a bit distracted and forget the current speed limit, and this is why the new update comes in handy.

Easy activation

In the video, Bredal explains how to easily download and activate the new update. Safedrive Pro updates itself OTA (Over-The-Air) automatically, and once the device has been updated, users can use the new main screen by pressing and holding the screen for two seconds.

As Bredal demonstrates, the speedometer has a color indicator, which means that the speedometer changes color if you exceed the speed limit on that particular stretch of road. He also explains how the new feature and the other alerts make him more attentive in traffic.

- It brings my daydreaming to an abrupt end - and I'm very happy about that, because it makes me a better driver.

Garasjetid is quality time

In just a few years, Garasjetid has become a popular online store for anyone with a passion for cars and leisure, offering a total shopping experience where you can find everything you need to take care of your car, motorcycle, boat, camper - and everything else. dditionally, they have a significant presence on YouTube, sharing useful tips and tricks with their followers on a weekly basis. Bjørn-Aage Bredal elaborates:

- Garasjetid focuses on leisure time. In the garage. Slightly aside from the "real world" where we can relax and focus on one thing at a time. Whether it's the countless hours many of us spend on our bikes during the winter, getting them ready for the first day of spring. Or it could be the camaraderie and socializing while polishing a car and discussing who got the shiniest panel.

- We produce hundreds of videos on topics covering cars or other vehicle maintenance - whether it's inspiring tips, great solutions or confirmation of something you already knew. We want to help you furnish your garage correctly and tell you how to light it properly. We aim to be a source of inspiration for your leisure time, accompany you when you polish your car, or help you take better care of your new car, boat or motorcycle.
