    It’s physics. Any vehicle capable of comfortable acceleration within the allowed speed zone will also be capable of greatly exceeding the speed limit. If you built a car that could only go 65, it would take forever to climb up to that speed, and it would be redlining the engine to maintain that speed. Any vehicle capable of efficiently and comfortably traveling at the speed limit will be capable of greatly exceeding it. Unless a governor is installed, of course.
