GPS doesn’t work underground though.
But the problem described in the article seems rather unique to NYC and one has to ask how other subway systems manage just fine without artificial slowdowns.
- mvnuweucxqokii 4y agoI'm pretty sure the person you're replying to was saying that the original speedometer mechanism in their 1955 car is accurate to within 2-3 km/h of the speed reported by GPS, and thus suggesting that this pre-GPS mechanism ought suffice for the subway / be better than whatever they currently use.
