Since school is starting this week and I do want to be careful in school zones, I thought it would be helpful to have school zones identified in my Nav syatem to give me an added reminder about slowing down for toddlers (and for radar guns). Is it possible to enter start / finish points on the sytems for the most frequent areas I drive?

I have a 2004 TL and school icons, hospitals and Acura/Honda dealers are always displayed on the nav screen and can't be hidden like other icons. Scale down to about 1/8 or 1/20 on the zoom function on the screen and you'll see them.

Yah, yah... I can see the sign and the cute icons on the screen, what I was hoping for was a little blinking light to remind me that I am about to enter a reduced speed zone. You know, to avoid running over the pop bottle hidden under the kids coat and maybe getting a flat tire or sumpin like that. Or maybe Scarlett Johanson's voice asking me to please reduce my rate of travel a little for the next several hundred yards with a hint of a promise...
