Air resistance increases exponentially with speed, so slow down! The difference between 55 and 75 is astronomical...

Though it doesn't change your point, air resistance doesn't increase exponentially with speed: r=ce^(ks), it increases as a power of speed: r=ks^2. Here, r is resistance, c and k constants, s is speed.
Misuse of "exponentially" is a pet peeve of mine, sorry.
