Re: How long to pass a car?
IAM say never break the speed limit, RoSPA say get the overtake done as quickly as possible. While speed cameras have no powers of reasoning, a copper would be hard pressed to want to book you for speeding up an overtake, provided of course you're not just riding like a tool anyway.
The flip side of claiming speed limits are universally applicable is that some people think they must go at the speed limit, even when this is too fast for the road or traffic (including non-car users).
