About Speedometer
Hello
I do not know if it is normal in your digital speedometers, but in mine when I go at night by road from the movement of the car I can see how there is a slight movement on the digital screen. The video that I have included has been recorded standing in a dark parking lot with the lights on although very little is appreciated live, it shows a lot more, if you look in the right part where the right circle and the limit of the digital picture you can see how it moves . I make sudden movements so that the speedometer moves. Is it normal? Does it happen to someone else? Can you try it? Google traslator used, Sorry. |

What seems to move is the digital screen and I can't make a video while I'm driving, which is when it can be seen the most.
I move and not the camera, the camera moves with me because I can move the digital screen I have to move inside the vehicle stopped abruptly. I'm sorry but I don't know how to explain it. If you look to the right where the vertex of the digital screen you can see a small movement, believe me that live is perfectly appreciated, you can do the test yourself. |

Stop staring at your speedometer enough to spot possible miniscule movements while driving.

The screen isn't moving, it's an illusion you see with any type of screened-device at high intensity like that. Just like when you're staring at your computer screen while eating chips, it will look like the screen is bouncing, but you know it isn't.
