How much speeding on the highway is not considered speeding?
2 Answers
A speed within 110 km/h is not considered speeding when the limit is 100 km/h, and a speed within 130 km/h is not considered speeding when the limit is 120 km/h. Introduction to Highways: Highways, abbreviated as expressways, are roads specifically designed for high-speed automobile travel. The definition of highways varies across different countries, regions, eras, and academic research fields. Highway Technology Innovation: Contemporary highways are evolving towards intelligent development, gradually forming the concept of "smart highways." Smart highways propose the integration of internet thinking and technology to reconstruct and transform traditional highway electromechanical systems and management services. The initial construction tasks involve improving highway operation management and travel service quality through information exchange and sharing, data fusion and mining, achieving informatization and intelligence in provincial highway monitoring and management, emergency command, decision support, business processing, and travel guidance services.
I've always believed that safety is the most important thing when driving on the highway, so from my perspective, no speeding is truly acceptable. Speed limits are set by engineers based on road condition tests. Once you exceed the speed limit, even by just 5 km/h, the braking distance increases. In an emergency, a few meters can make a huge difference. I remember one rainy day when I almost rear-ended another car because I was going 10 km/h over the limit—the car felt slippery and uncontrollable. Now, I always strictly adhere to the speed limit. For example, if it's 120 km/h, I stick to 120 km/h to avoid unnecessary panic. The same goes for life—small oversights can lead to big disasters. So don’t believe those who say a little speeding is harmless; that’s irresponsible. Safety isn’t about luck; it’s about habits.
