365Telugu.com Online News, June 4, 2025:Google Maps has always been a lifesaver when navigating through unfamiliar places or cities. Now, it has become even more powerful with new features that go beyond just guiding your route. One standout feature now helps drivers avoid hefty traffic challans (fines). Curious? Let’s explore what it is and how to activate it.
Google Maps Speedometer Feature: A Smart Tip to Avoid Fines!
Yes, you heard it right! Google Maps has a built-in Speedometer feature that displays your vehicle’s real-time GPS speed. Even better, it alerts you with visual warnings if you exceed the designated speed limit of the road you’re driving on.
This is particularly useful at night or in areas where speed limit signboards aren’t clearly visible. It also comes in handy in construction zones or local roads with low speed limits, helping you stay within legal limits and avoid unexpected challans.
