Is safe to look at the speed monitor while driving as long as you do it by taking a quick glance?
Certainly. One needs to know how fast or slow they are driving and obey the posted speed limits. Just because the sign says the speed limit is 55 does not mean that you must drive at that speed. There are times when conditions like rain or snow on the roadway will not safely permit travel at the posted limit. Remember, driving is a privilege not a right.

Basic Speed Law?
"The Basic Speed Law states that no one speed is best under all conditions. The posted speed limit is simply the maximum recommended speed allowed by law under ideal conditions. The Basic Speed Law implies you must never drive faster than it is safe for conditions at that time. This means that even if you drive within the posted speed limit, under certain conditions, such as in rain, snow, heavy traffic, or bad road conditions, the posted speed may be unsafe and you may be in violation of the law."
