That makes speeding illegal.

This really depends on the state and your lawyer's skill in the courtroom. I have a lawyer here who has, on at least 2 occasions, gotten a jury to acquit on a speeding offense due to the wording in the actual speed laws. I don't understand fully how he did it, but he did it. Luckily with me he hasn't had to take a ticket all the way to a jury trial yet.
