I was recently in Arkansas where the speed limit as you all know is 65 so i'm going 62/63, people are flying past me going at least 70
I was recently in California going 55 (maybe 56) and people were just FLYING past me like i'm sitting still, even people like Schneider, Swift and Prime
same story as in Oregon (55), i'm being passed like i'm sitting still
why don't trucks follow the speed limit? is there some new law that made them obsolete?

70 in a 65 that's normal IMO.
I usually set the cruise to 65 and sit back. Less wear and tear on my truck. I could care less what other people are doing.bigkev1115, terterlooloo, BrenYoda883 and 1 other person Thank this. -
Uh.... really? I am sure amusing comments are to follow!

Don't worry about how fast everybody else is driving.
In California they let you slide at 60.terterlooloo Thanks this. -
Hope you at least keep your slow truck in the right lane and clog up the middle

Same could be said for cars... speed 65, they do 75...

The faster you go, the bigger the mess.
