there is NO excuse for setting the limit at 55 when everyone is going 75-85. 55 is like what you do on a two lane country road, sheesh

There is an excuse.  Safety.  Everyone should be going 55, and that'd be safer.

But....fuck that shit go 110.  Stop signs are what really piss me off.

My mom got pulled over for going 70 in a 65 zone. She was on the Mass Pike. 70 is wicked slow, most people speed by going 80-90.

Well, then everyone can get a ticket. Speed limits are not set by majority vote.

That's fucking idiotic. Just because everyone speeds doesn't make the law stupid, nor does it mean that the law must change because the majority are going fast.

That's just your state.

Here it's 70 and the traffic moves at 85.

it's a lot safer to be going with the flow of traffic than to be going 55 while everyone else is going 70-80...

I got pulled over for doing 105 in a 100 zone, where everyone goes 120. Pissed me off, because the ticket was more like a slap in the face than anything.

He let her go for speeding and only gave her a ticket for not wearing her seatbelt.
