Whenever you are traveling in a car, tracking the speed of your vehicle can be a safe thing to do. With today's day and age, tracking your car speed has become as easy as a Google search. With this technology, anyone can track their vehicle's speed from the palm of their hand.
How does it work?
Car Speed Tester is a web-based application or you can say an online tool that can measure your car speed by using your device's GPS. The tool calculates the time it takes to travel between two GPS points (coordinates). Then, the Car Speed Tester computes the time it takes for your car to move from Point A to Point B, and then the tool shows your speed in real time on your screen.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is location access needed?
Location access is required to use the Geolocation API, which provides your current coordinates and speed. We use this data to calculate and display your speed in real-time. Without location access, the speedometer cannot function.
Why is speedometer permission requested?
Your browser requests permission to access your location for security and privacy reasons. This ensures that websites cannot track your location without your explicit consent. You can revoke this permission at any time through your browser settings.
How to start the speedometer?
Simply click the 'Start' button. Your browser will ask for location permission if you haven't granted it already. Once you approve, the speedometer will begin tracking your speed in real-time.
How to stop the speedometer?
Click the 'Stop' button to pause speed tracking. Your current session data and top speed will be preserved. Click 'Start' again to resume tracking.
How to reset the speedometer?
Click the 'Reset' button to clear your current session and reset your top speed to zero. This action cannot be undone, so use it carefully.
How to change speed unit?
Open the Settings panel and select your preferred distance unit (kilometers, miles, etc.) and time unit (hour, minute, second, etc.). The speedometer will immediately update to show your speed in the selected units.
How to change time unit?
In the Settings panel, choose from various time units including seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, or years. Combine this with your distance unit to create custom speed measurements.
How to change language?
Use the language selector in the Settings panel to choose your preferred language. The entire interface will update immediately. You can also access different languages directly through the URL (e.g., /es for Spanish, /fr for French).
How to change speedometer style?
In the Settings panel, choose between Analog (classic gauge with needle), Digital (numeric display), or Both (side-by-side display). Your preference is saved automatically.
How are settings saved?
All your settings (units, display style, language preference) are automatically saved in your browser's local storage. They will persist across sessions, so you don't need to reconfigure them every time you visit.
How is top speed saved?
Your top speed is automatically tracked and saved in your browser's local storage. It persists across sessions until you click the 'Reset' button. Remember, all data stays on your device and is never sent to our servers.
