Same with highway driving in Texas...you have to be doing European Autobahn speeds to really attract attention...there are scores of P/Us and SUVs pushing major air, and they are the prime targets, leaving the sedan drivers to squeak through...

It's going to change though. Our air quality is getting to be an issue, and the bureaucrats don't want to lose their federal highway funding, so some areas are posting reduced speed limits, and others are being more closely monitored. I know Houston for one, is looking at dropping back to 55 mph on many highways...much of it, roadways that are so clogged anyway that 55 WOULD be speeding!
