Now only if I could get away with driving 40MPH on the Highway. In MN, the lowest allowable speed on the highways is 40mph, but that is asking for serious trouble since most people go about 10MPH above the speed limit.

Example:
55mph limit means go 65
60mph limit means go 70
70mph limit means mash the go pedal till you see God, then slow down a little.
Yeah I'm in MN also.. in rural mn its like more like 5-10 mph depending on the driver, then again cops will give a ticket if you 10 over no questions asked... but the twin cities is nuts.. go the speed limit and people are flying by you like your standing still.. but there cops usually just go after the "boy racer" types.. the ones thinkingthe roads are race tracks.. and leave the 10mph overs alone
