zone question - delete default zone before adding others?

When I want to add a custom zone, do I need to delete the default zone first or can I just add my custom ones and leave the default?

What works best?

If you leave the default one it will be used as well. You could edit the default one and turn it into your custom zone.

Here's what I'm trying to do:

Right now if a car moves in the driveway, it doesn't pick it up.
If someone walks inside the fence it doesn't pick them up unless they're in the bottom right corner of that image all the way against the house.
I have it set to Fast, medium sensitivity for both zones.

Any ideas as to what settings would work better?

You have to tune your zones to suit the camera, lens, and perspective of where the camera is in relation to what it sees. There is no one magic setting and the presets are only there as an example. There is no way to have one magic setting that works with all those variables. See the zone tuning section in the wiki.
