While using Google Maps while driving/ riding a vehicle, the speed limiting function kicks. The function warns the riders about their current speed and warns if there is over speeding.
Even though users are advised not to entirely trust the over speeding function of Google Maps, they can take it as precautionary warning.
The speed limit function of the Google Maps also shows the duration of the journey, ETA (Estimated Time of Arrival), remaining kilometres of journey, and many other options for your convenience.

At the time of rollout, the function was available users in selected regions of Asia, Europe, South America, UK and US. However at a later phase, the function was made available to more users around the world.
