I have made the same observation with my Nuevi.

If I use the pre-installed city navigator maps, it detects nearly
instantly, when you leave the precalculated route.

If I use on the same device an OSM-map created with mkgmap, you need to
travel approx. 100m away from the road, before the deviation is detected.
