A minor niggle I have with the planners is that they calculate journey time on the assumption that you can (and want to) travel exactly on the speed limit for the whole of your route. Which means that unless you do that, your ETA gets steadily later. At least with TomTom you can programme in a maximum speed for your vehicle (say 100 kph), which is a quick and dirty way of getting a better idea of how long it really takes. Then your ETA improves as you travel. Terry

" a minor niggle I have with the planners is that they calculate journey time on the assumption that you can (and want to) travel exactly on the speed limit for the whole of your route." Almost without exception, for us [allowing for meal and loo stops etc] we average 50mph on a longish run [Its a bit more on the dash back to the ferry - but that's because we try and stay as long as possible in Italy]
