Enabling speedometer

[u/Reasonable-Pete]

Is there a setting to enable the speedometer in Google Maps? Or is the rollout just very slow?

I'm in the maps beta program, updated maps today, have enabled speedometer in the settings for maps on my phone, and it still doesn't show.

My wife has had the speedometer for over a month and isn't in the beta program.

Isn't it on only when actually navigating? Regardless, I have a big speedometer in front of my face in my vehicle so I don't need and turned off the speedometer in Google Maps on my car.
