        I don’t like names being attached to it. Maybe average and high speed instead of a “score board”.

          Found the shit heel wanting to set the high score!

          Nah, name and shame, 100% that will likely actually make a difference over traffic stops or photo radar.

            Yeah, and when my GPS skips for a second and my speed registers as 89+mph for a few seconds as the system catches up I’ll really be shamed for what a horrible person I’ve been!

            (This isn’t even a hypothetical, I regularly see my estimated speed in android auto get wonky because GPS signal isn’t perfect)

              If they are using single point data I guess yeah, but they would most likely use a rolling average. Average speed over 5 seconds could account for the glitch, or only continuously updated data to avoid those rubber bands.

              It’s funny, I would be right there with you just having some fun with my truck/car, but yeah if it was visible like this it’s a totally different issue.

              I know they can already use that data to deny warranty if I’m hooning it that like that, so yeah haha

    96 in a 45? That’s only +51. What is this, amateur hour? Hell, I can do that in a fucking first-gen Prius. And the road has a long straightaway. The fuck are they scared of?

    Out of my way, I’ll be +100 over without breaking a sweat.

    You get put on a different Leaderboard if it’s the last road of your life.

    In this study we preset an accurate method for determining the safe upper limit of speed for a given…

    This is both cool and not cool.

    It will be the future and past of driving.

    If real then it’s a lawsuit waiting to happen. First person killed and the family sues for encouraging competition to break the law and engage in dangerous driving.
