I'm currently learning to drive and I would say most lessons I get someone overtake me in a 20 zone as I'm sat dead on 20mph. More than once they misjudge a traffic island or traffic light and have to brake/serve quickly.
It's one thing to drive a bit over (24-25mph ish) but you have to be a complete dickhead to 2nd gear redline your BMW/Delivery van to overtake someone on a narrow residential street
