    I’m from the UK and this isn’t too much of an issue beyond the couple of usual idiots. Went to the US though and it was insane, we were getting overtaken by school busses going 95. We were at the speed limit and getting overtaken by almost everything.

      It’s true. Cities set speed limits with the expectation that the average driver will be driving 5-10 over.

      Every time I go on a road trip here in he US, it strikes me how everybody seems to want to drive the same speed regardless of the speed limit.

      Go 65mph in a 55 and I’m one of the slowest cars on the road.

      Go 75-77 in a 70 and I’m one of the fastest cars.
