How to know if you are speeding on the highway?

You can check by visiting the office hall of the traffic police departments in various cities and counties to use the touch query terminal, logging into the external service website of the Public Security Traffic Management Bureau of each city's Public Security Bureau, calling 114 for inquiry, using traffic violation query tools by entering your license plate information, or using various mobile apps available for checking violation information. Generally, you can query by entering your license plate number and engine number. If you were caught speeding, it will be displayed in the violation records. If it shows no speeding, there might be several reasons: Reason one, the data has not been updated yet, so check again in a few days. Reason two, you were speeding but not caught by the camera. Reason three, you were not speeding. Reason four, the speeding location and the license plate registration location are not connected online. Compare the speed shown on your car's speedometer with the speed limit of the road section: If the speed limit is 80 and your speedometer shows 100, you are clearly speeding. If there is a camera, you will definitely be caught. If you drive slightly over 80, you are still speeding, but you may not be caught.
The first time I drove on the highway, I was extremely nervous and kept staring at the speedometer needle to ensure it stayed under 120. The speed limit signs on the highway are crucial—whenever they changed, I slowed down, like 100 at the entrance, 120 on the main road, and 80 at the exit. The GPS navigation app was a huge help, as it displays the current speed limit in real-time and beeps to alert me if I exceed it. I’ve gotten used to using it for trips. Road conditions also affect judgment—during rainy seasons or at night, I pay extra attention to maintaining a safe distance because poor visibility can lead to misjudging speed. Sometimes, I see other cars speeding, but I never follow their lead—safety comes first. By combining multiple sources of information, I can generally ensure I’m not speeding.
