I understand. I run 75, I pass them like it's nothing.. I honestly think they should take a state route where mostly the speed limit is 60-65. But that wasn't the question. My truck has 85 on the dash and it does more than that. I hate when people drive slow in the middle and left lane.x#1 and WitchingHour Thank this.

Man you said it right...if your truck cant do the maximum legal speed limit you dont belong on that interstateWitchingHour Thanks this.
-
So, explain why they have a minimum speed limit and where the law says you HAVE to do the MAXIMUM.mattbnr Thanks this.
-
Exactly. Why should everyone else go faster just cause someone else wants to go faster? What if i only feel safe going 65? Or 60? Just cause you feel safe going 85, which is probably higher then the rated speed of your tires anyway, why should I go that fast? Get in the left lane sooner and pass me safely. No need to run clear upon my trailer bumper and then get pissed cause you don't know how to look past the end your hood.moonlite85k Thanks this.

does everyone has to stop and go because u want to lolly gag your way down the road?
-
Shouldn't be any stop and go if your looking far enough ahead. You adjust your speed ahead of time and get over and keep trucking. Not that hard to switch lanes on a open interstate. Your suppose to be looking at least 8-10 seconds ahead anyway. That's plenty of time to see a truck ahead of you, tell he's going slower then you, turn your signal on, merge over and hammer down if you feel the absolute need to.
-
65 in a 75 okay....but 60 in a 75 is a impeed of traffic....then you want to get in the hammer lane and takes you 2 miles or so to pass the next truck....oh and if a hill comes up mow its 4 miles

You have no clue how the trucking business works

So where is the law. You only listed YOUR OPINION.
