As far as I know, the law is the same in Arizona, at least people say it is the case. However, if I am driving fifty-five in a 50 or 55 zone, I do not worry as much about it, especially if I happen to be driving five over! Sometimes, there is not anywhere to pull over, either!

People regularly cross the double-yellow to pass me, of if there is a dotted yellow, you will see one vehicle pass five or ten others, while I always hear the law requires playing leapfrog.

It is strange how people rant and rave about me driving the speed limit. They claim that it is more dangerous to drive slower than faster, and how I am a bad person for not matching traffic.

Which part of traffic?! Everybody drives a different speed!

You also hear about people who have a large vehicle tailgate, so they speed up, again and again, until an unmarked police car pulls you over.
