the speed limit
2007-07-27 18:13:42 · answer #1 · answered by Lauren 5 · 0⤊ 1⤋
On the interstate I go the speed limit if the trip is under 50 miles. Over 50 miles I may go 3MPH over. In town I usually go the speed limit + 3-5MPH.
If you do the math, traveling 65MPH for 50 miles it will take 46 minutes. If you do the same trip at 70 it will take 42 minutes. Is a ticket worth 4 minutes?
In town it is even more pointless. If you are in traffic and are only traveling 2-3 miles the extra speed is pointless.

Depends on the traffic and if there are any cops around. :p
It there's a lot of traffic I stay a few miles under the speed
limit. If there's no traffic I got 5 or 10 above the limit and
if it's like... in country roads then I can speed a little. Nothing
radical. :p

Highway: ususally around 80-90 mph
City: about 30-40
Inner neighborhood streets: 20-25
So about always, within reason. I hate when people speed around in places that they could seriously injure someone like parking lots and anywhere that people live that isnt a main road.

I still have the common sence to drive the speed limit. I just wish other people would do the same.
