it refers to the agreement of a letter of law and a spirit of law, meaning that they are not in conflict. the spirit of the speed law is to keep people from driving at dangerous for that areas conditions, the letter of the law may not agree and require a slower speed.

another example of this is when police arrest due to the wording of the coded law, but the spirit of the law was intended to deal with a specific problem, such as loitering, it is not intended that all persons be arrested for it, just those that are bothering an area can be removed using the letter of the law.
