I have never heard of anywhere that a speeding ticket cannot be issued if you are doing less than 5 miles over the speed limit. I have spent quite alot of time with police officers on a friendly basis, and they always said they did not even have to give you the 5 miles over the limit that everyone feels entitled to if they did not want. They usually will, but they told me that they have actually ticketed people for going 1 mile over if the driver had a sh**** attitude. Now this was not in Florida.
