Is it acceptable to increase the speed of your vehicle over the legal speed limit to pass or overtake another vehicle?
In practice, It is acceptable to increase the speed of your
vehicle over the legal speed limit to pass or overtake another
vehicle. Legally, it is not permitted. If the other vehicle is
already at the speed limit, you should not be passing it. If it
were a police car you were passing, at any speed above the speed
limit, they could stop you.
