In California, you would bet a ticket for driving too slow. A awful lot of cars were passing you.

Wonder what the speed limit is.

I also saw the 50 MPH which is slow in my area except in commute hours where 25 MPH or less can be considered fast.

Of course interstates it is 70...unless there is construction which most of the time there is! Then it drops to 45 mph "when lights are flashing" the signs say.
Last night I was returning home from a meeting, 4th car in our group, all going the speed limit of 55 mph and a guy went around me going well over 70mph. I am sure he wasn't aware that I was car #4 and he passed ALL of us! We all slowed down cause we figured he would "meet" somebody in the on coming lane. Thank goodness he didn't but...ha, ha, ha for him because as soon as he got around us he entered a tiny town where the speed limit dropped to 25 mph for about 5 miles. So his speeding around us did him nothing because going through that little town he was then car #1 of 5. He didn't dare speed through the town cause the town marshall was sitting at the side of the road right after the "Begin 25mph" sign with his "speed gun".  |

The motorway I was using is an urban motorway which passes right through the centre of Glasgow. The speed limit for most of it is 50mph although a lot of drivers ignore that (as you could see!) The speed limit on motorways (freeways) is normally 70mph although a lot of drivers ignore that too!

The right hand lane is supposed to be for overtaking only but a lot of drivers see it as a 'fast lane' and stay in that lane all the time. Don't get me started on middle lane dawdlers!  |

Same thing happens here in US, just on the other side of the road and yes, we have "middle lane dawdlers" too! Obviously a universal problem. |
