Not to argue - cuz it seems to be an excellent product - but notice Google

Hi Mark,
OpenLayers is just the map display part of the puzzle. Once you move
into implementing the tracking yourself, and not using Google API
services, you will need road layer data (OpenStreetMap data comes to

AFAIK you can use their services with no charge unitl you don't strictly
make money by means their APIs. Instead you're allowed to provide a
commercial service with no fess if you can document
