This paper provides a comparative analysis of the direct economic costs of speeding versus speeding, specifically on the freeway network. Focusing on four key indicators: fuel consumption, vehicle depreciation, traffic fines, and air pollution costs, this study shows that choosing to exceed the speed limit on freeways is a very costly decision for drivers. Using a descriptive-analytical research method and examining technical and economic data related to freeways, the results clearly indicate that driving at a speed limit of 120 km/h compared to higher speeds (e.g., 150 km/h) results in significant savings in fuel costs, pollution, depreciation of sensitive vehicle parts, and heavy fines, amounting to more than 2,800,000 Tomans. The paper concludes that even on freeways where high speeds are possible, exceeding the 120 km/h speed limit is not economically viable and driving within the law is in the best interests of the household economy.As a result, a proper economic assessment can be made regarding illegal speeds.
