Here are the 55 mph speed limit signs at the start of the clip:

And her speedometer at that time shows 56 mph.

But she admits to pacing that truck beside her for 3 minutes at what appears to be below the speed limit. Why on earth do people drive on a relatively empty road side by side weather you are going fast or slow (slow in this case)?

Well, her original text for the clip is gone, but I distinctly recall no mention of her "pacing" the F250. Her intention is to turn left off 41 at Hwy 75. Prior to the bridge there is a lane merging from the right- a good reason to be left- and two trucks in the right lane on the bridge that she OVERTAKES- definitely gotta be left for that.
"Three minutes" prior to filming plus under two minutes on the clip at 55 mph = about 4.5 miles over the entire incident, with less than two miles being covered during the entirety of the clip. Camping out in the left lane- hardly.
Here is right about even with where the F250 came to rest:

Note the left turn lane, which she gets into.
