    10mph over? Have they driven on CA freeways? The vast majority of traffic is moving at 15+ mph over.

    This will cause traffic slow downs and more road rage.

      One interesting about speeding in traffic. Often you’re rushing just to stop.

      It’s been proven that if you cap the max speed in heavy traffic everyone gets through it faster. Less stop and go with merges and guesses.

      Think of all the times someone sped up to prevent you from changing lanes? Or someone blocks you during a zipper merge.

      Traffic wouldn’t suck as much if people didn’t suck. I can’t wait until a few decades from now we’ve got AI cars Managing it for us.
