Re: Taking bets
Ummm, how would a bluetooth ID ever get linked to a vehicle identification/registration/license? What if the system grabs the bluetooth ID off your phone? Or a laptop? Or a headset?
I think for driving on Deerfoot in rushhour, they should just put a default message on the screen. Time to 64th Ave North: FOREVER.

Re: Taking bets
Saw this on the way into work this morning, 21 minutes from deerfoot/anderson to deerfoot/airport trail @ 8:00am. I really like the idea, especially in the winter conditions!
I think we should have a side bet to guess the longest time posted/seen on the sign by a eurodrivers member before christmas. :PComment

Re: Taking bets
Just keep your bluetooth turned off unless it's connected to your car/headset and it shouldn't be an issue.Comment

Re: Taking bets
does it pick up non-discoverable devices like the name implies? on most phones i think that is the default setting anything unless you are pairing for the first time, and no way can they figure out which car the actual phone is in2002 VW Golf GT TDI

Re: Taking bets
Over the past little while i have started to notice a few discrepancies but usually it is fairly accurate. One time the sign said 61 minutes til my turnoff, the next sign a km down the road said 16 minutes.
With that note the highest time i have seen on there is the 61 minutes, and that was definitely an incorrect time, next highest time is 38 minutes.
I'm starting to like the system
