Honestly, what do you expect from a community that seeks to maximize fuel economy? And what constitutes normal? As I mentioned before, the legal speed range on highways in my area are 40 mph to 70 mph. Anywhere in between is technically "normal flow". Where people disagree with you is that you believe the maximum speed limit is the required speed limit, and anyone going slower is now restricting traffic flow. Technically (and legally) anyone going below the minimum speed limit of 40 mph would be restricting traffic flow. I respect your choice to feel the public pressure to go the speed limit. But you can't tell me I am wrong for going 55 mph in a 70 mph zone, simply because it isn't what all the other drivers are doing.
