No, legally speeding is never allowed. The way the police and the law looks at it is if the car in front of you is traveling the speed limit you have no need to pass them. If they are going below the speed limit you can legally pass as long as you do not exceed the posted speed limit. I know what you are thinking. I am going to exceed the speed limit to pass as I want to get around them as quickly as possible but that is a violation of the law. Even though everyone does it.

Can you get a speeding ticket while passing another vehicle?

In some states and countries the passing lane on a highway is reserved strictly for passing and you can get a ticket for driving in it when you are not passing. In other jurisdictions, you are permitted to drive in the passing lane. This is why you need to be aware of local friving laws when you are driving away from your home.

Nothing whatsoever.There seems to be a widespread belief that you're allowed to speed when passing, but this is not the case anywhere I have ever lived. It's called a speed LIMIT, not a speed SUGGESTION.
