Bus Speed Test
Bus Speed Check Online
How fast is your bus actually going? Tap Start Tracking to check your speed in real time — your phone's GPS becomes a live speedometer for buses, trains, cars, bikes, or even your walking pace.
Open on your phone
Open Bus Speed Test in any mobile browser — there's nothing to install.
Allow location
Tap Start and allow location when your browser asks — the check can't read your speed until you do.
Watch your speed
The dial updates live with your speed, distance, and top speed as you ride.
What Bus Speed Test Does
Bus Speed Test is a free online bus speed check you open on your phone while you ride. It reads the same satellite signals your maps app uses to work out how fast you're moving, then shows the result on a dial you can customize. There's nothing to download and nothing to sign up for — just open the page, allow location, and go.
Works in any browser
Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge — if it can use your location, the check works. Nothing to download.
Private by design
Your GPS data stays on your phone. Nothing is logged, uploaded, or shared.
Real-time updates
The dial refreshes about once a second as your phone tracks your movement.
No data plan needed
GPS comes from satellites, not your data plan. Once the page has loaded, you can ride into tunnels and still see your speed.
Light & dark theme
Auto-matches your system theme, with a one-tap toggle in the header.
Easy on the battery
Stop the check between rides to save power on long journeys.

How Accurate Is It?
Your phone uses satellite signals to pin down where you are to within a few metres. When you're moving steadily — like a bus on the highway — the speed it reports is usually very close to your real speed, often within a km/h or two.
Accuracy can dip for a moment when the bus passes under bridges, into tunnels, or between tall buildings that block the sky. The dial recovers within a few seconds once there's a clear view again, so a quick bus speed test stays reliable for most of your ride.
