How much speeding is allowed in average speed enforcement zones?
2 Answers
Average speed enforcement zones allow 0% speeding. If the average speed does not exceed 10% of the speed limit, only a warning will be issued without penalty. Below is relevant information about speed limits: 1. Concept: Speed limits refer to necessary speed restrictions imposed on various mechanical/electrical equipment and manual operations to maintain normal, stable, safe, and reliable production order and operational processes. The primary purpose is to preemptively remind drivers to reasonably control vehicle speed in subsequent road sections ahead and prevent speeding hazards. Speed limits are an indispensable and most critical component of road transportation safety. 2. Speed limit conventions: Relevant regulations are stipulated in the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China", with the authoritative reference being the "Technical Standards for Highway Engineering". The reality is that overall public awareness of traffic safety still needs improvement; actual speed limits take legal documents as absolute prerequisites, traffic references as standards, and practical situations as flexible considerations.
I just studied the operational logic of interval speed detection, which essentially calculates the average speed using cameras at the start and end points. Many people think it's okay to slightly exceed the speed limit, but in reality, any average speed exceeding the limit over the entire stretch constitutes a violation. I've heard there might be minor fluctuations due to system recognition errors, but authorities never promise any tolerance for speeding. Previously, I saw drivers being caught for exceeding by just 5%. Rather than gambling with luck, it's better to control your speed properly, which can also save fuel. This design aims to prevent loopholes, and keeping an eye on your speedometer throughout the journey actually makes driving safer.
