Default Odometer accuracy on miniPRO app

How accurate is the odometer mileage on the miniPRO app? It seems generous to me showing more mileage than actual. Did anyone check theirs on a measured course?

Segway (like 70's era Ford/Chevy) sets speedometers and odometers to be optimistic so they don't get sued when you get a speeding ticket.

I find this interesting. Has anyone gotten a speeding ticket on a segway? If so, have you considered suing segway over a discrepancy?

Default Mileage accuracy on minipro app

Is there a way to adjust mileage on the app to make it more accurate to actual mileage?
