I’ve grown increasingly frustrated with google maps recently because its time estimates are just way, way off.
My guess is that this has something to do with their ML assuming I will exceed the speed limit by X MPH based on my driving history or the flow of traffic or something, but it’s insane to go 80 on a 65 MPH highway and somehow arrive several minutes later than the original estimate.
I've had this issue too, but only sometimes. Thinking about it, might be due to stoplights. Google has no way of knowing when I hit a red light, and some of them are obnoxiously long. I'm assuming Google uses an average, so if you get unlucky it get be way off.
Yeah I dunno, I mostly mean highway driving. Like I’ll go ~20 over the speed limit (basically the flow of traffic in jersey haha), for an hour and still get there the same time as my original ETA.
