Otherwise it is pretty safe to engage at any road speed BTDT many many many times over the last 20 years of Canadian winters with both center and rear locking diffs (typ 85).
Unless you are turning sharply the slight speed differential between flanges is actually beneficial for engaging when the teeth are not aligned and disengaging when there is slight tention in the system and vacuum actuator is not strong enough to do its job.
On my B4 I cut the blue/white wire that provides the speed signal so I can lock (and disable ABS) on the fly as well... it also helps on the ice.
