A one-way, single lane road has traffic that consists of $30 \%$ trucks and $70 \%$ cars. The speed of trucks (in km/h) is a uniform random variable on the interval ( 30,60 ), and the speed of cars (in km/h) is a uniform random variable on the interval $(40,80)$. The speed limit on the road is $50 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{h}$. The percentage of vehicles that exceed the speed limit is ________ (rounded off to 1 decimal place).

Note: $X$ is a uniform random variable on the interval ( $\alpha, \beta$ ), if its probability density function is given by

$$ f(x)= \begin{cases}\frac{1}{\beta-\alpha} & \alpha < x < \beta \\ 0 & \text { otherwise }\end{cases} $$
