Interstates have 65mph and 75mph limits with a 10mph tolerance, which means everyone sits on 85mph (135-140km/h) with wide lanes and smooth freeways that we can dream to have here

I thought that in the 80's, they only had 55mph limits even on freeways....I could very well be wrong though!

When I was ova there in 93, the freeways and interstates in California were 65mph, but the cops didnt seem to worry about the speed that much, and if you were travelling in a group of cars going faster than that, the cops didnt seem to target you....
