abstract="This study examines how speeding behavior varies depending on the visibility of the traffic police, the presence of time pressure, and the location of driving (inside and outside cities). 620 drivers analyzed 8 different photo-based scenarios and reported the intended speed for each situation. The results showed that drivers over speed mostly in urban areas, when under time pressure and when there is no visible police control. Moreover, when under time pressure they will exceed the speed limit regardless of the location and police presence. We discuss some hints for improving the intervention methods of the traffic police.<p />",
