Using Google Maps on Android Auto. When I have a destination, it shows the speed limit of the current road. But if I don’t have a destination it won’t show the speed limit. It still knows what the speed limit is, but it won’t show it. Is there any way to have it show the speed limit all the time?
So, the law says that if you are navigating, the speed must be hidden? Can you share this law? I want to read that absurdity.
No, that’s not what I said.
It’s the speed limit that isn’t shown in certain countries. The speed is shown.
There is obviously not any specific law against showing the speed limit. The legal issue is that the Google’s software for showing the limits is tied in with the speed control software, which is illegal some places.
Google just haven’t bothered make a custom version of maps for those places.
Also, they have had technical issues with the speed limit data being so wrong in some places that they rolled back the function shortly after it was implemented.
I’m sure they hate dealing with this kind of question: https://support.google.com/maps/thread/42045207/how-do-i-prove-that-google-maps-showed-the-incorrect-speed-limit-i-need-to-dispute-a-ticket?hl=en
