Some small towns will issue a ticket for one mile over the posted limit.If the weather is bad, you can get a ticket BELOW the speed limit.
10%
I think the going rate is 10% over the limit. So if its 55, you should be able to go 60 or 61
As long as you're going roughly the same speed as anyone else (within 5 mph or so), they won't pull you over. In fact, if everyone else was speeding, and you were the only one going the speed limit, you might be pulled over for obstructing traffic. I know a few people that have ad that happen to them. ^_^

Most people that I have talked about this with always tell me 10 mph over the speed limit, unless the cop is having a bad day.

10 %There is no speed yopu can go and not be able to get a ticket. Most jurisdictions have a "driving too fast for conditions" law. If the cop decides you were going too fast to safely control your vehicle, he can give you a ticket. There is technically no error you are allowed.

But legally +1 is breaking the law and a ticket-able offense.Is it legal to park your car right across the street of a residential driveway?
usually it's about 5mph over the limit but really depends on the cop, sometimes they'll nail you for just that 5mph over the limit, other times not, I once flew by a cop not paying attention, when I realized it was a cop, I hit my breaks till I was driving side by side, looked over at em and they laughed at me and took off.What Do You Do To Ensure Your Safety In Life and In Others?

Why don't hospitals provide 4 wheel drive vehicles to the doctors?
I think its less do to with the speed and more to do with how much the district/town needs money. I have been pulled over for 10 over by municple cops but left alone for 20 over by state police. I have noticed sometimes, mostly with state, they will sit out there just to make you slow down and not give you a ticket.Will my license be suspended?!?
I personally believe that the best bet is to stay within 5 MPH of the speed limit on surface streets, and 10 MPH on the highway/freeway. Go with the flow of traffic is always a common thought, but the biggest NO-NO for me is do not dare go over any speed limit pertaining to school zones. Not only is there danger for the children, but this is one speed limit that should not ever be abused if avoiding a ticket.When you see the sign "police enforcment area"?
On the freeway, I see individuals driving 10-25+ MPH over the limit. What I do is to stay within 10, or if the traffic is clear and moving smoothly, stay in the middle lane and let the one going the fastest get the ticket. If I see a car flying by, I know that one will get the ticket over me! Above all, stay safe and respect everyone else while driving.

Why do cars always tailgate semi trucks?

We pick up the bear in the air(State Patrol) when he is calling down to the cars on the ground and most of the time it is 7 or over when they pull people over but we have heard them pull people over a 5 miles over.

Should I take my driving test in my own car?
Guess what. It's EXTREMELY ad-hoc and situational. You can get a ticket for 70 in a 65 if the situation on the road makes you like the person to give a ticket to. (say conditions are bad and everyone else has slowed to 50.)
You can also get pulled over for driving too fast for conditions (a case where you can get a ticket for going slower than the speed limit).
What is the name of the small side-view mirrors seen on the hoods of SUV's in Europe and Asia?
If you and another person are both speeding, the ticket is likely to go to the person who's driving more like a freak. I once followed this crackhead in a mustang... he drove 80 mph, tailgated, cut people off, drove himself into boxes, squeezed through holes... drove badly. I went fast too - but hung back, left lots of room, planned ahead, signaled, and kept within 500 feet of him... for 10 miles... in a 75 horsepower econobox!! This guy was reckless to no useful purpose, and the cop woulda gone to him like a heat seeking missile.
When driving what is the right of way, and how do i know who has it?
If you and another person are both speeding and it even remotely looks like you're competing (or reacting to each other) -- you are at risk to get a much more serious charge, racing or "exhibition of speed". Byebye license!
If you are in a car and a live wire falls across it should you stay in the car or get out?
You can get pulled over on the most ridiculous pretense (66 in a 65) if the cop wants to pull you over for some other reason that isn't technically against the law, like:
- It's 10 minutes after the bars closed, and they're fishing for drunks
- It's marijuana harvest season, and you and your car look like drug runners.
- They're looking for a fugitive with your vague description
- Racist or classist profiling
Since those are illegal reasons to stop you, you are in dire danger of getting a ticket for the pretense. It's moments like this that it's very helpful to have a minor thing wrong with your car, broken taillight etc. so they write you a fix-it instead of a nasty points violation.
