Is it permissible to drive faster than the posted speed limit?

Always
Yes, if other drivers are driving faster
Only 5 mph over the speed limit
No, it is never permissible

The correct answer is: No, it is never permissible

Driving faster than the posted speed limit can be dangerous and is against the law. While it may seem tempting to speed up if other drivers are going faster, it is important to follow the posted speed limit for everyone's safety. Additionally, even going 5 mph over the speed limit can still be considered speeding and can result in a ticket or accident. It is never permissible to drive faster than the posted speed limit.
