Correct answer

  • CSí, aunque la fuente principal de información debe ser siempre el velocímetro.Yes, although the main source of information must always be the speedometer.
Explanation

Although a satnav can tell us the speed we are travelling at, it is not a good idea to rely on it, because it may give wrong readings. The vehicle's speedometer is a reliable source of information about speed, so we should always go by it.
