This had been "common knowledge" for a long time, but I don't know if 
it is really true. I believe there is some motivation to the 
automakers for the gauge NOT to read low, otherwise some owners will 
always try to sue the maker for their speeding tickets. I suspect 
that over the decades, speedometers have gotten more and more 
accurate.
