My actual average driving speed in the Green Grand Prix fuel economy competition (calculated: distance driven/time moving) was 45 mph. But the ScanGauge reported an average speed (including time stopped at lights, signs, mandatory rest stop) of 37 mph.

I would have thought it would stop counting at the rest stop, after it noticed you were stopped for a significant period of time?
