His conditions were "normal driving conditions.

all driving questions are set under "normal" conditions...

His conditions were "normal driving conditions.
Well, I don't think that there are "normal" conditions. Driving on a 6-lane interstate, speed limit 65, 100 is just fine. (35 over) Driving on a curvy montain road, 2-lane highway, spee limit 55, sometimes 55 is just about as fast as is considered safe.

It really depends on too many conditions mostly car, driver and traffic. My Porsche is much safer to drive fast than my Subaru, heavy traffic is more dangerous than highway 50 in Nevada (the lonliest road in America) Someone who is talking on their cell phone two months after they learned to drive is more dangerous than someone with more experince and the sense not to do something other than drive.

Good luck on the class.

Depends on where it is and what the conditions are. But I would have to go with never for the most part.

Dont get me wrong, there are definately times when it is not "safe".

Of course, that depends on what your definition of what "safe" is :-)

Gender: Male

Driving for 4 years

Zero infractions, warnings, accidents, tickets.

Yes, I do think going 5 mph over the limit is dangerous.

Speeding is dangerous "e", always.





My definition of safe is getting no tickets or infractions or any of those kind of problems. Who wants to pay more money?! Not having accidents or hitting anyone I find goes in tandem with following the law, though it's obviously not a guarantee or anything. I don't speed much anymore and make a point not to speed at all, so far it has only turned out good so I guess I'm sticking with it. It might be important to note I go through 30km/h school zones often and drive on the highway not often. I really don't see going a little over on the highway that dangerous but I myself probably don't care enough to do it.
