In this situation, are you allowed to exceed the permitted speed in order to complete the overtaking sooner?

Description

Art. 19 and 20 of the Road Traffic Act (Journal of Laws of 2012, item 1137, consolidated text as amended)
Explanation

Correct answer: No

The provisions of the Road Traffic Act do not provide for any exceptions that would allow exceeding the permitted speed limit. The speed limit is always in effect, including during an overtaking manoeuvre. This manoeuvre must be carried out efficiently, but above all, safely and in accordance with the law.
