more apt..

"Rules don't apply"

The speeds should be set to the real speed limits by law not a vague Traffic flow 
limitation imposed by Traffic (Jam) Enforcers... 

If I do 30KM/H will my garmin later report speeding? 

5KM per hour is walking speed, I do faster than that most of the time in 
Makati. (I walk everywhere in Makati..)
