    65 in a 75 is not maintaining the speed limit.

    California is actually way safer than Texas. It's a pain in the ###, but it's definitely safer out there. Don't believe all the political BS.

    I believe not what I hear but what I see.
    Everyone running the same speed is safer.
    The less people have to change lanes to pass someone the less chances of an accident happening. Why is that so #### hard to figure out?

    Texas has a 47% higher fatality rate despite traffic being significantly lighter.

    It has nothing to do with changing lanes, it's because people like yourself tailgate or otherwise behave poorly. At 80 that dramatically increases the chance of death.

    As you said, "What is so #### hard to figure out?"

    Yes it is. 75 is the max posted, guess they never taught you old folks that huh? Failing to maintain is going 40. Usually minimum speed is 40-45. Go back to drivers Ed bub lol

    Most of which are four wheeler only accidents.

    Hahaha that's funny. I see you're now making stuff up and trying to change the subject.....I do not tailgate or otherwise behave poorly. I have never said anything about running 80 the highest speed limit I see is 75
    Good Bye

    75 max has a minimum of 55. The minimum is 20 under the maximum. Go back to drivers ed.
    Good Bye

    He has caused no accidents by driving under the speed limit. If someone runs up on his butt and suddenly jerks left without checking the lane that's on them for not looking fast enough ahead. Get a grip of perspective, the guy is talking about running 65 mph in the right lane, not 35. Nothing prevents you from passing him safely.
