    I have not personally but we don't hit the freeway just residential streets. They say the monitor has a ten percent error either way. You may burn 10% more is less. I assume less and adjust calories accordingly. That way if calories earned while driving they will ne accounted for in that 10 percent error. Enjoy. I love mine and can't imagine getting to goal without it.

    It automatically fills in data from previous wears to account for the calories that you burned while not wearing it. This is beneficial if you ask me. For instance my husband wore his at night originally and burned about 550 calories a night, now he elects not to wear it at night so instead of it just ignoring these calories that he usually burns, it assumes that he burned those same 550 calories and adds it in for his daily calorie burn. He can then edit off body if say he was doing something different to change calories. Like last week he played basketball for 2 hours and only wore the 1st hour. The second hour he actually edited off body to give himself the same amount of calories he burned the first hour.

    This is REALLY good to know. Thanks so much! I was getting so angry! :flowerforyou:

    I just got mine, charged it and put it on and it said that from 4:40pm to 9:00pm I burnt 4400 calories! After reading through forums I see why since it "assumes" calories burnt and such, however, when I try to only edit the calories i actually burnt while wearing it I can't cut out the "dead" calories with the edit-off feature and I can't figure out why. Is it because it's my first day wearing and I should just wear it for a few days until I get the hand of things?

    I want to love this thing as much as everyone else but I want to make sure I love it for the right reasons.
