Interesting enough, by driving 55, the legal speed limit on that highway, they were breaking the law. Disruption of the flow of traffic. Cars are exponentionatly safer now than when the speed limit laws went into effect back in the early 70's. At that time the speed limit wasn't for safety, but for conservation of energy. The speed limit laws are nothing more than a revenue generating item right now.... Look at rt 95 going through Richmond Virginia. Almost every highway emergency turn around location had a trooper in it, yes I'm not exaggerating, most had more than one trooper sitting in with his radar. There was one that was empty, he was probably out ticketing someone. Speed limit there is 55mph, go 20miles over that limit and it's reckless driving (bigger fine)... Yah, drive 75mph and in virginia it's Reckless driving... All the troopers were in Chevy Impalas with the police package (plain black wheels are a dead giveaway for this option). Advise for anyone traveling through Richmond, Virginia area... Take 295 bypass..... Mike B Michael P.

Truth is, speed doesn't kill - a difference in speed does. You're not one of those people that does the speed limit in the left lane to "control" other drivers are you?
