Also depends on the cops. In 2011 they were basically very lenient with speeders but were cracking down on people crossing the double yellow.

They know they have to strike a balance between keeping the road fun, but also keeping it somewhat sane. Tighten your grip too much and the area loses revenue. Loosen your grip too much and all hell breaks loose!
I mean, you can do the speed limit pretty much the whole way and still enjoy yourself. You won't have much fun on the straights, but many of the 318 corners demand lower speeds, so if the road is being heavily patrolled, you can still get your G-forces fix in the corners.
