How is speeding determined?

Speeding is determined through the following methods: 1. Eyewitnesses: including vehicles behind, pedestrians, surveillance cameras, etc. 2. Conduct speed tests based on vehicle damage. Also, note that if the other party did not brake, there may be issues with improper measures taken. If the traffic police issue an appraisal report that does not mention speeding, you can disregard this conclusion and directly file a lawsuit in court. At that time, evidence will need to be provided. So the key is still to have evidence. You can also conduct speed tests with more authoritative institutions. 3. Exceeding the maximum speed limit for that road section is considered speeding. Many road sections have speed limit signs, which are red circular signs with a number inside indicating the maximum speed for that section.
I found that speeding on the road is mainly identified by several types of speed detection devices. The most common is the fixed speed camera, which uses radar or laser technology to detect a vehicle's speed. If the speed exceeds the set limit, it takes a photo to record the license plate number, time, and location. Mobile speed enforcement vehicles often use handheld radar guns, where police officers hide by the roadside and measure the speed as vehicles approach, with very low error rates. Additionally, highway systems frequently employ average speed cameras, which calculate a vehicle's average speed between two points rather than instantaneous speed, preventing drivers from temporarily slowing down to evade detection. These methods are quite accurate, as they utilize advanced sensors and algorithms to ensure reliable evidence of violations. I recommend that drivers not rely solely on navigation alerts but pay more attention to roadside speed limit signs and camera locations. Developing good habits can help avoid fines and reduce the risk of accidents.
