In the US we do have “learner’s permits” which sort of sounds like are a lot like the L Plate you’re describing.
The thing about speed limits in the US is that it varies by major extremes depending on where you are in the US.
There are certainly places where you can and likely will get pulled over and ticketed (or worse) for going a couple miles over the speed limit.
There are absolutely also other places where you can easilyandregularly get away with over 20mph over the limit.
Speed limits are typically set pretty arbitrarily based on what people feel like they should be though and the fact is that the safety of the road is what really dictates the actual speeds travelled more than anything else unless you’ve got an abundance of enforcement.
Very interesting context.
