Car speedos overread up to 10%. It is quite feasible that your actual
speed , not indicated speed, was as low as 55MPH which is 5MPH below
the HGV speed limit. Onmy last wagon, I knew how inaccurate the speedo
was..0.5 MPH at 56MPH because the tyres were part worn.

Or was it on a hill, perhaps? AFAIAA, speed limiters only cause loss
of power. Sudden, involuntary braking could be highly dangerous in
poor road conditions.
