RE: Problem Found On Insim!
GPS is way less accurate at speeds cars usually go compared to a classic speedometer. Even under best conditions it's accurate by 3 metres. So, if you want to see your speed once a second you have a calculated inaccuracy of 10km/h when traveling @ 50km/h. And thats under best conditions. And furthermore, the car manufacturers have to build their cars to meet certain regulations to sell them, and I'm quite sure, a "independent, reliable and accurate speed measurement unit" is a requirement. GPS is proven inaccurate and more important, the car manufacturer can't guarantee it's accurate, or working at all. Imagine a close thunderstorm and no car on the highway knows its speed, or even worse, they see different. So bottom line, that function is rather a toy than a tool.
Edit. Some words to a classic speedometer. It certainly has some inaccuracy too, but this value is within defined and guaranteed limits. And it's accuracy is both verifiable and adjustable. |
