Does Speeding at the Start or End Point of Section Speed Measurement Count?
2 Answers
Speeding at the start or end point of section speed measurement does not count. Below is relevant information about section speed measurement: Reasons why speeding at the start or end point of section speed measurement does not count: Section speed measurement calculates the average speed from the start to the end point based on the time taken. If the time taken is less than the stipulated time, it is considered speeding; exceeding the time does not count as speeding. The principle is based on calculating the vehicle's average speed over the section by measuring the time it takes to pass between two monitoring points, and determining whether the vehicle has violated the speed limit based on the speed limit for that section. Precautions for beginners passing through highway section speed measurement: For beginners driving on the highway, there must be a driver with a license for at least 3 years or more sitting in the passenger seat; even with a license and an experienced driver accompanying, it is necessary to check the vehicle's condition, such as fuel level, tire pressure, brakes, etc., to ensure everything is normal. Most importantly, check if there are any issues with the tires. The maximum speed limit on domestic highways is 120km/h, and drivers must adhere to the speed limit indicated by road signs. When changing lanes on the highway, also be cautious: each lane change should only involve one lane at a time, and continuous changes across two lanes are not allowed. Additionally, remember that the emergency lane must not be occupied under non-emergency circumstances (including stopping and driving).
As a seasoned driver with decades of experience, I believe average speed check zones mainly monitor your overall average speed across the entire stretch. Even if you momentarily exceed the speed limit by accelerating at the start or end point, the system won't penalize you as long as your average speed remains within limits. The working principle involves cameras at entry and exit points recording your license plate and timestamps to calculate average speed. Thus, instantaneous speeds at endpoints alone don't count. However, drivers should remain vigilant as some intersections have standalone speed radars that can issue fines for individual violations. Safety first - I always maintain consistent speed throughout, avoiding sudden acceleration at zone boundaries. Speeding invites accidents and pointless penalty points. Steady driving saves trouble, especially on highways where you shouldn't wait until entering a check zone to slow down. Remember, average speed monitoring promotes smoother driving by reducing speed fluctuations - a far superior system to spot speed checks.
