The actual GPS 1023 to 0 is not the only date when these events happen.
About a dozen buses in the county fleet are currently displaying dates
in mid 1999 presumably because their GPS firmware adds some constant
to the GPS week number.  Previous rollovers happened last year and
have been fixed; new rollovers happened around the beginning of this
year.
