Do you legitimately believe getting in an accident going the speed limit on the highway is less dangerous than 5 or 10 mph hours over?
Kinetic energy = 1/2mv^2 where v is ur velocity.
So yes, going over the speed limit starts becoming exponentially more dangerous per unit of speed u go above the limit.
Highway speeds are already dangerous. Living in utter fear of people marginally over the speed limit to think an irritating beep is justified the moment you exceed the limit is a sad existence to torment yourself with.
