Technically, no. If you have to go over the limit then there is no need to pass.

Is there any legal reson for going over speed limet?
speed limits are set depending on location of the road and the states discretion. Usually you can go max 10mph over limit and cops wont stop you.. but to be sure..just stick to the speed limit.
How fast are you allowed to go when passing another vehicle?
i recently read you are allowed 5 mph over or under the posted speed limit. and also that when you are legally passing a vehical you must got 10mph faster then the car you are trying to pass. is this true???
How many mph should you increase to pass another vehicle traveling in the same direction?
According to the law, you're still bound by the speed limit posted on that roadway, even when passing. If you exceed this speed limit and are observed by a police officer doing so, it'll be entirely up to their discretion whether or not they pull you over and cite you. Typically, five miles per hour over or so will usually be let go (but this is in no way guaranteed), but if you're doing something like 20 over, you'll definitely be cited.
How fast can you go when passing a car going 45 in a 55 mile an hour zone?
The legal speed limit is 55, passing or not. If you go faster, you take the risk of getting a ticket. Unless you are in a state which allows you you to exceed the speed limit while passing. Wyoming just passed this; not sure if any other states allow it.

It is acceptable to increase the speed of your vehicle over the legal speed limiy to pass or overtake another vehicvle?
The speed limit is exactly that - the speed limit. It remains in place even when overtaking another vehicle. Chances are, if you're going five over the speed limit to overtake a vehicle, and a police officer observes it, they'll let it slide. Do 20 over, and they're not going to. However, there is no guarantee - the moment you go over the speed limit, you're subject to be cited for it, even in a passing situation.
