因為不知道您人在哪裡,老貓就用加州的法律來解釋
Vehicle Code - VEH
DIVISION 11. RULES OF THE ROAD [21000 - 23336] ( Division 11 enacted by Stats. 1959, Ch. 3. )
CHAPTER 7. Speed Laws [22348 - 22431] ( Chapter 7 enacted by Stats. 1959, Ch. 3. )
ARTICLE 1. Generally [22348 - 22366] ( Heading of Article 1 amended by Stats. 1959, Ch. 11. )
22350.
No person shall drive a vehicle upon a highway at a speed greater than is reasonable or prudent having due regard for weather, visibility, the traffic on, and the surface and width of, the highway, and in no event at a speed which endangers the safety of persons or property.
所以, 70 英里的限速是一個官方認定的"合理速度",(reasonable speed) ;但是依據路況與和天候,駕駛人可以酌量增減車速。但是對於警方,只要你超過限速,就可以開單。 (但是當大家都開得快時,你不可能每一個都抓,所以只能抓那些開得特別快的。這就是為什麼,你看到大家都"開得很快"),但是這不是合理,只是抓不完。(老貓工作的州,照相開罰是依據限速,加上 11 mile 開罰),這就是開罰的"合理速度"的認定。)
但是,如果司機依照你的要求超速駕駛,如果肇事,你需要負責。(刑事與民事)
