After driving for many years, I've noticed that people often overlook the details of calculating speeding. When the speed limit is 80 km/h, exceeding it by 10% means 88 km/h. Specifically, you calculate it by multiplying 80 by 10%, which gives 8, and then adding it back to the original speed. Although it's just 8 km more, this speed difference on the road can reduce reaction time, especially in rainy or foggy weather, where the braking distance may increase by several meters. In case of an emergency, it can be dangerous. I once experienced a minor rear-end collision because I couldn't brake in time while speeding. I recommend paying attention to the dashboard every time you hit the road and staying within the speed limit for safety. Regularly checking your car's condition, such as the tires and braking system, can also reduce the risk of accidents. In short, safe driving is no small matter—paying attention to the details is what matters most.
