I was driving through Salt Lake City at 85mph and people were passing me at much faster than that. People love to speed in some places. Especially when the roads are long, straight and wide.

In Houston if you aren't going 100mph you're basically a hazard on the roadway
I feel like people already do that even when the limits are clearly posted. 🤷♂️
The rule here is also pretty fucking dumb so I hope it changes for the better. Speed limits ain't even based on safety, but by how fast the 15th fastest vehicle out of 100 usually drives when there's no traffic? I'm surprised every speed limit isnt 100+.
