How much can you exceed the 100 km/h speed limit on the highway without getting fined?

A speed limit of 100 means exceeding 100 km/h is considered speeding, though it may not be penalized immediately. Here are the details about speeding: 1. Definition: Speeding refers to a driver operating a vehicle at a speed that exceeds the legal or regulatory limits. Turbine overspeed accidents are severe malfunctions caused by failures in the speed regulation and protection systems, as well as inherent defects in the turbine itself. 2. Impact: Speeding accelerates the wear and tear of vehicle components. The faster the speed, the more it disrupts the vehicle's operational indices in specific environments, increasing the workload and stress on the vehicle, and hastening the wear and damage of parts. This is particularly detrimental to the tires, leading not only to jumpy and skidding wear but also raising the friction temperature, which can cause the tires to age and deform rapidly, increasing the risk of blowouts.
As an experienced driver with decades of driving experience, I want to share how to avoid fines when the speed limit on the highway is 100 km/h. Based on my personal experience, there might be a slight discrepancy between the speed displayed on the dashboard and the actual speed, usually with an error margin of ±2 to 3 km. Therefore, I find it safest to keep my speed between 98 and 100 km/h, as the actual speed might be around 95 to 97 km/h. Many places have a 10% buffer for speeding, so theoretically, driving up to 105 km/h might not result in a fine. However, if you encounter stricter enforcement or more sensitive cameras, even 101 km/h could get you ticketed. From a safety perspective, even a slight increase in speed significantly raises the risk factor—such as shorter reaction times and a higher chance of rear-ending someone during sudden braking. I especially advise new drivers to maintain cruise control at 98 km/h and avoid impulsive acceleration when overtaking. This approach saves money, reduces stress, and keeps you safe.
