Is a sat nav more reliable than a speedo though?
I reckon it is.
I've read before that it is against laws/regulations for speedos to read less than the actual speed and therefore manufacturers 'play it safe'.
When my car speedo reads 30mph the sat-nav reads 28mph.
At 40 on the speedo it is 37mph.
At 70 on the speedo it is 65mph.

On that way of thinking though if you get nicked for speeding how do you defend yourself correctly?
You can't really argue the fact that your speedo is technically out of calibration otherwise you'd probably get nicked for that as well?
