![]() ![]() ![]() In California, in addition to the basic speed law (driving safe for the conditions) there are specific sections for exceeding the posted limit. If he cant, which is most the case, he backs off to 5 over the limit. On the interstate he tries to keep up with the pack. So, unoffically, do I keep up with traffic or stick to the limit or even slower? I know the driving manual talked about keeping with the flow of traffic, however it can warn if you drive the posted limit and conditions are unsafe from excessive traffic, weather, etc you can still get a ticket. I see where it can be a safety concern on city streets with parked cars, schools and intersections, but what about the interstate? I find even on city streets with 25,35mph limits, flks do 45 or more. I was on i 95 and caught myself easily doing 65 with cars passing me in the 55-60mph zones. The problem is, it seems no one goes the limit or even 5 over. I am just mastering driving the posted speed limit vs a few under and in some cases the extra 5 Ive heard I am allowed. As a new driver behind the wheel for a few days over a month I have some questions. ![]()
