Get Entity Speed (MPH)

Getting the speed of vehicles is easy once you know how! Rounding numbers and converting GTA’s units to MPH can be difficult for new developers.

client.lua

function GetSpeedOf(Entity)
    if Entity == false then return 0 end

    local Speed = GetEntitySpeed(Entity)
    Speed = Speed * 2.2369 -- Convert to miles per hour
    Speed = math.floor(Speed)

    return Speed
end
