Quote:As for speeding, on the test the examiner is assessing your observation skills amongst others. If you exceed the speed limits how can they tell if you saw the limits and ignored them on purpose, or if you missed them completely, and your observation is therefore crap?
I'd think that if you kept doing it in 30 or 40 limits he'd have no qualms about failing you, but if you only do it when it's safe, sensible and necessary to complete an overtake in a prompt and timely manner he'd be fine with that.

Shh! Someone might be offended...
