Absolutely. Over the speed limit is over the speed limit. But it is very unlikely because the proof will not be there. Devices used to determine another car's speed, like radar guns, are not sufficiently exact to prove a 1 mile overlimit speed. Such devices have tolerances as much as 5 MPH, sometimes more, meaning that if the radar device reads 1 mile over the limit, the speed could really be anywhere between 4 MPH under the limit or 6 MPH over the limit. That possibility is sufficient to create a reasonable doubt that will prevent a conviction. What if the tolerance is 5 MPH and the reading is 67 MPH. That could be enough proof, but police have better things to do than stop a car for going a mile over the limit (like going after the people going 20 MPH over the limit). If they stopped every car for going 1 MPH over limit, they wouldn't be able to do anything but write tickets.
