GPS SPEED ACCURACY
Generally the GPS Speed Display is more accurate than a car
speedometer although reacts slower. The Car Speedometer
often reads faster due to some of the following factors:
Conservatively calibrated speedometer by manufacturer, worn
tyres, lowprofile tyres, differentsized wheels andthe number of
available satellites.
Your GPS301 has a pre-programmed memory that will alert you to any
speed camera, red light camera or black spot you are approaching.
