Why? What's the situation where you would need to go faster than the speed limit?

Passing another vehicle comes to mind.

I'm not sure I would call that "extremely dangerous", though.

Breaking the speed limit to pass another vehicle is against the law. At least in my state, you can't legally pass unless the other car is going 5mph under the speed limit, and then you can only pass at the speed limit, not over.
