honestly most drivers are not very skilled lol

but with ideal traffic conditions going a bit over I see no issue with if one is capable of doing so and ok with risking a ticket.

just did a 1600 mile round trip and 1/2 of the way down at very late hours I was the only car on my side of the road. warm dry conditions I went about 95 avg. no issues.
Exactly, 95 is quick but its not fast and dangerous. Now, 95 weaving in and out of traffic might be a different story...i know non of us have EVER done that before.....

To your point earlier, with current advancement in automotive technology there is so much more a car is capable of in terms of accident avoidance and safety. Speed limit laws are not governing grandpas old Cadillac.

Also in terms of "laws" talking on a cell phone is illegal (just like speeding) but why isn't eating in the car anddoing makeup in the car illegal. Its arguably more dangerous....
