minus-squarepaequ2@lemmy.todayOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·7 days agoEvery car I’ve owned has had a way to change the speedometer from freedom units to ✨ metric ✨ . For knowing what speed I should be going, I roughly follow these numbers. (Note, these are not equivalent.) 35mph -> 50km/h 60mph -> 100km/h 70mph ->110km/h Also, very roughly 10km ≈ 5mi. However, most of the time I just follow the flow of traffic. I voluntarily switched to metric like 10 years ago, so meters, celsius, grams, etc make more sense to me now.
