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.
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???
No. Even when passing, you're still bound by the speed limit of that road.

In most places in the US you are not allowed to exceed the speed limit by any amount at all when passing. It's called the speed LIMIT, not the speed SUGGESTION. If you can't pass without exceeding the speed limit, then don't pass.Some states used to allow this, at least under certain conditions, but several of them have since changed their laws to forbid it. If you want a definitive answer, contact your state government; the highway patrol should be able to tell you for sure.

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.
