Car Speedometer Accuracy vs GPS: Understanding the 5 km/h Difference

Difficult to do on an analogue pivot, on a stepper motor it's a snap to do a kink test and make a correction

In my Polo 6n2 on 185/55/14 tyres at an even 100km/h, according to the odometer, the navigation on the windscreen two other smartphones show 94km/h.
For me, this kind of overshoot helps a lot and I personally think it's a good thing. It's easier for me to look at the speedometer in the city and watch out for the dash next to the 50 rather than the 44.
A long time ago, I used to believe my car's odometer and I would take 5-7km off the gas and when the odometer lied to me by another 6, I would be doing 40 instead of 50.

As for the regulations, I don't have a say. If it were up to me, it would be 60 in the daytime and 70 at night in the cities, 100 on trunk roads and 120 on S roads, 140 by day and 160 at night. Motorways from 140 to noLimit.
NoLimit for professional drivers with a minimum of 2 cat. driving licence and with a minimum of 5 years experience on CE or D. Of course for cars up to 5 years old and factory adapted to high speeds. I like Germany. Hundreds of motorways with unrestricted speeds, which means that it is possible, and I have not yet heard of a Pole breaking down at 200 or 220 km/h, and I would lock pedestrians, most of them pedestrians and cyclists, in closed wards and treat them with electricity. Maybe then they would embrace the fact that even at 50km/h it is impossible to stand still before the pedestrian lanes.

Meanwhile, they should introduce a subject in primary schools: "how not to swerve under a car with headphones in your ears and eyes fixed on your smartphone".

I have a question:
If the odometer lies I understand that the vehicle's mileage is somehow corrected in the eq, what?

And do you know why? Because fines there hurt, I also often drive for a German, Poles there docile as lambs.

It is not the fines that hurt, but the ban on driving for a month if you do not exceed the limit, and for three months if you get carried away with your imagination by 30mph, for example on a road undergoing renovation.

And not docile lambs, but simply a culture on the road. Mostly 😉

There is nothing. You can fly as much as the factory allows.

The best thing is the mentality. In Poland 140 on the motorway and a lot of people chase 160-200, while in Germany on many sections of the aforementioned noLimit and Polish plates politely drive 130. Normally unbelievable .
