pass it? What about when you go from a 30 zone into an NSL? Do you never accelerate to even 30.5mph before you pass the NSL sign?
 * Every* *single* *time*? You're never even going at 30.5mph when you

If you honestly do do that *every* *single* *time*, then to be honest you're attaching way more importance to numerical speed than is required, probably at the expense of other, more important factors. You simply don't need to ensure that you're below exactly 30.000mph every single time you pass the 30 (or NSL) sign. That's never been what good driving was about. (Of course the trolls here seem to think that good driving is about nothing but keeping to the speed limit. Crazy.)
