When you are driving on a very steep road. When you are driving on spiral road, you will find that the floating point swings. It is nothing to do with the radius of the road and the driving speed of your vehicle.
GPS is managed by the department of defense of USA. It may purposely reduce the accuracy of the GPS signals so that the car may swing. Use Notice The floating point may swing before the GPS signal is received when you turn the power on. The floating point may swing when you use the system at the first time after installation. The system will automatically adjust its position and direction using GPS signals when the floating point mismatches real condition.
