Right ALS everything we dont like is a government conspiracy. How can any of you possibly say that slowing the whole nation down 10-15 mph wont save very much gas? This is a hypermiling/ecomodding site is it not? Do you know nothing about the subject? Maybe some car get a little worst mileage at 55 than at 60 blah blah blah and other horrible excuses but you all know this will help the majority of cars increase FE. To say if the law is not enforced completely it wont work is also ignorant. For starters there are actually people out there that obey the law without having to get in trouble first. Secondly there is a limit to how far over you can go before it will be enforced without doubt. 20 over is reckless driving and i garuntee you will have a cop up your ass in a hurry if you go by him that fast. What this means is even if most people speed and you reduce the speed from 70 to 60, they will start driving 70-75 instead of 80. They may still speed but they will slow down some to stay in that safe zone where they wont get pulled over and it will still save gas. If you want to drive fast and speed do it but dont tell us this idea wont save fuel because without a doubt it will. Without a doubt.
