Does your country let you drive over the speed limit?

In the US, they generally let you go 5 to 12 miles over the speed limit.

I think they put speed limits in some areas with the assumption that people will drive over. Which is why smaller towns have so many 25 MPH limits even though everyone is going at least 35 MPH.

I've heard stories from someone from London, that if they go a single digit over, tracked by some system (not even a human) that they'll get a speeding ticket.


I just find the logic behind how strict an area is, or isn't interesting.

the speed cameras will nab you for going a few miles over the speed limit
you can go maybe 7 miles over the limit before arousing the police, if theyre around.
