Does Google Maps expect you to speed?

Does Google Maps track your speed?

The addition of a speedometer in your navigation shows you how fast you’re driving on the road. Important: Speedometers shown in the Google Maps app are for informational use only. Make sure to use your vehicles’s speedometer to confirm your actual driving speed.

Does Google Maps account for stops?

Google Maps uses the speed limits along the route in its time calculations, so that doesn’t account for stops for fuel, food, rest breaks, or for delays for weather, traffic, or construction. You can estimate delay time based on your own travel style, and recalculate accordingly.
