About three minutes after I started driving, my Galaxy Watch Ultra showed that I had been running for three minutes. Has anyone else experienced this?

That's funny those sensors are seriously sensitive.

Fitness-focused smartwatches like Garmin typically avoid automatic workout start features. Given the high sensitivity of their sensors, there's a risk of accidental workout starts. Based on my experience with smartwatches, I recommend disabling this feature.
