The problem is that the flow of traffic tends to be 10MPH over and even then your post holds no ground because the people doing 80+ on 65 will still be jumping on their brakes to avoid hitting th epeople going with the flow .
I'm a realist. I can't afford the ticket, time off (if fighting), and/or points/insurance increase. Nothing high or might. Just saying it's easier to do it this way and ensure no tickets.
Now, I am an ADVOCATE for upping the speed limit, if that is what everyone wants. Again, it's an UPPER LIMIT not what you have to go, too. Plus, I love my 50 mpg, and wind drag is horrible above 62 mph.
I know what you guys are saying...it just kills me when 80% of people are going along merrily 5-10mph over the limit and there are 1 or 2 guys that cause a line of cars 20 deep because of those guys driving a couple minutes under the limit....
Don't take it to heart guys, this is coming from a 19 year old
