Speeding on freeways

[trader]

We have clowns here. Dangerous ones. Does your area have them too? 170mph down the road in a posted 65. https://www.fox10phoenix.com/news/p...after-allegedly-going-up-170-mph-loop-202-dps

yeah, all ours come from Asia and S asia and drive 35 in a 50 zone and 55 on the highways.

I spent last week in Hutto, TX. Those friggin people drive like maniacs! I'd have been a tad more "defensive" but I have to travel unarmed and I know for sure those cousin marrying fools had a bazooka with em.

I see the State Police here are posting grabbing folks at 110 or 120 haven't seen any at over 150 here in a long time.

Here they speed everywhere. Some days you never see a cop and other days that's all you see. On my street alone it is posted 35 and most of the time they drive by doing MUCH more than that.

I shouldn't post here. I just bought a sport bike this past spring (rode sport-tourers most of my life), and on a nice day with low traffic, I've been known to push the envelope a tad...

I have a 27-year-old Jaguar XK8 with about 85,000 miles on it. I'm not overstressing the drivetrain and drive the speed limit. When I drove the Oregon State highways to Salem for my VA appointment, I took it easy and avoided a potential accident. (A bedroom dresser had fallen from a vehicle and nearly caused a calamity.) At my age, I enjoy long-distance touring and let those who would speed on to collect the jail time and citations. To heck with that!

I'm a true Grand Touring-style cruiser and my Jaguar says it all: Grace, space and pace.

The construction of a data center near here has made life very hazardous. Debate the usefulness of the data centers but the actual construction turns rural areas into high-speed disaster areas. Speeding and flipped semi's, traffic jams, torn up roads, high cost housing and imported people who don't even speak Spanish; more like the bar scene in Star Wars. I take the back roads to work now where the only thing I'm worried about is running into a hog.

No worries - everyone occasionally exceeds the limits. It is what it is. Now then, exceeding it by 3x the posted, well that is something else entirely.

but again, its the dummies that race on the highways, weaving in/out of ordinary drivers...

Around here they are called Canadians. They can’t believe that the speed limit on highways in Utah is 80, and drive 55 in the fast lane.
