AK Raj Faulty Speedometer

If the speedometers are inaccurate, how do the drivers keep track of how fast they are really going?

It is quite common for speedos to show a few KMPH more than the current speed for a few seconds due to wheel slip. I have often seen this happen. The needle goes up by ten or twenty KMPH for a few seconds and than drops down to the actual speed as the wheel slip stops and the wheel returns to actual speed after spinning for a few seconds. The phenomenon witnessed by Khalid is ofcourse some thing different.

Harsh, thanks for the detail! In cameras like these (point and shoot or semi-slr's) the grain factor is high beyond ISO 200, hence I had no option but to take it at 100. I could have tried ISO 200 too but decided to stick to 100! Again in cameras like these, I would need a smaller aperture than f/8 with a shutter speed of 30 seconds or more (bulb) to get a steady shot!
