Your speedometer will read 11.9% (4.22/3.77) less than your actual speed.
To make the correction in your head, add the most significant digits of the
speedo reading to the speedo reading and the sum will be very close.
Examples:
Speedo = 60, 60+6 = 66 (actual = 67.2 .....1.8% error)
Speedo = 65 65+6 = 71 (actual = 72.8 ..... 2.5% error)
Speedo = 85 85+8 = 93 (actual = 95.2 ..... 2.4% error)
Speedo = 150 150+15 = 165 (actual = 168 ..... 1.8% error)
I'm sure the fuzz will cut you some slack since you and your car look like
law abiding types.
