Is driving at 130 to 140 km/h on the highway considered speeding?

Driving at 130 to 140 km/h on the highway is considered speeding, as the maximum speed limit on highways is 120 km/h. However, according to traffic regulations, exceeding the speed limit by less than 10% on highways or national roads only results in a warning, without any penalty points or fines. Only when the speed exceeds 10% above the limit will fines and penalty points be imposed. According to the Road Traffic Safety Law and its implementing regulations, the speed limit on roads without a central dividing line is 40 km/h; on roads with only one motor vehicle lane in the same direction, the speed limit is 70 km/h; and when entering or exiting non-motorized vehicle lanes, passing railway crossings, sharp curves, narrow roads, narrow bridges, or when making U-turns, turning, or descending steep slopes, the speed limit is 30 km/h.
