Ok then, this may be good source of the (actual) average speed of vehicles
on a particular road (at specific times of day, eg. during rush hour, etc.).
This will give a more realistic ETA on gpsr autorouting.

As for averaging tracks, i think the roadguideph people (on motorbikes) have
been doing this already (jan v. knows his math). But i still don't like the
idea, since these bikers don't follow the speed limit and cross lanes too
often by cutting corners when they hit the zigzags at high speed. They won't
reflect the actual curves of the road. Well I guess, delivery vans (with
gps) can't go that fast, since they are always monitored by their boss. :-)
