How much above the limit can you get away with from a speed camera roadside trap?

Question

Just wondering, if caught in a roadside police camera trap, how many miles above the speed limit can you get away with,

i.e, what have you been caught on?

Ive passed at 36mph and never heard a thing but got 3 points 34mph in a 30 zone.

Bad I know!

Answer 1

it really depends on who's behind the  radar gun but on the open road you can usually get by with 5 mph  over but in town one can never tell.....

Answer 2

IT depends on what the particular agency sets it to.  Those things are generally only put out in places where there are a lot of speed related crashes, or neighborhood complaints.  As such depending on the area the threshold may be different.
