Speed limits have not changed significantly since I started driving almost 50 years ago. At that time going 70 or 75 was considered flying. Today it is the average speed on most highways I have been on for the last 15 or more years as cars have improved significantly.
Even in NYC on most highways cars travel at the speed limited by traffic with 70MPH of so being a slow average when there is no significant traffic and many cars traveling over 80. Speeding tickets are for the unlucky as virtually all drivers are exceeding the limit.
It is time for the various legislatures to increase speed limits to the de facto speed that is being traveled. I would set the limit at 75 and enforce laws on lane use and right of way. People exceeding the limit by 10 or more miles an hour should be ticketed and people traveling in any but the rightmost lane 10 or miles an hour slower than the limit should be ticketed. I personally think they are more dangerous than the speeders.
My personal practice is to travel in the lane with the most space in front of me. I think driving to close is the more dangerous practice.
