As I mentioned on a another thread, I've been back to the states for a year. We are based near Atlanta and have taken a few trips by car to various states around the Eastern 1/2 of the US. I noticed that as many as 1/2 the people drive usually 20% to 30% over the speed limit. I also noticed except for Pennsylvania, highway patrol cars seemed to be mostly absent. Unless we were in a hurry or trying to get to our destination quicker, we drive no more than 3 to 4 miles over the speed limit. When the limit is 70 mph, I don't like going much higher but people around us are flying past us, Sometimes even when we are in the right lane, cars/trucks get too close for our comfort before going around us. I guess if there were more patrol cars, that type of speeding would be reduced.
