华盛顿的代码合理和审慎的速度
Maximum speed law:
According to section46.61.400（1）WA车辆代码：“在条件下，没有人以比合理和审慎的速度驾驶车辆，并考虑到当时存在的实际和潜在危害。”
Minimum speed law:
“任何人都不会以慢速驾驶汽车来阻碍正常和合理的交通移动。”
“这样做时，任何人都不会在多车道道路的左车道上连续开车会阻碍交通流量。”
“When driving a vehicle on a highway having two or more lanes of traffic in the same direction, a person shall drive in the right-hand lane except when traveling at a speed greater than the traffic flow.”
Due to variations in speedometer calibration, tire size, and margins of error in speed-detecting technology, it’s uncommon for an officer to pull a driver over for going less than five miles above the speed limit. However, technically any amount over can be considered a speed violation so best practices are to stay within the limit.
尽管由于绝对速度限制法律，可能很难在华盛顿战斗，但驾驶员可能会选择去法院并根据以下一项声称自己的纯真：
驾驶员可能会反对确定速度。为了声称这种辩护，驾驶员必须知道如何确定他或她的速度，然后学习如何反驳其准确性。
驾驶员可能会声称紧急情况导致驾驶员打破了速度限制，以防止伤害或损害自己或他人。
驾驶员可能会声称身份错误。如果警察将驾驶员速度速度速度，随后必须在交通中再次找到他们，那么他们可能会犯错并把错误的汽车拉过来。
