I generally am going between 70 and 75 on level ground. There are 3 small mountings/large hills between Temecula and San Diego and the semis slow to about 35-45mph up them. If a real slow one (25mph) is in the slow lane, the other semis are darting around it and I've found it is alot safer going about 70 up the hills in the 3rd lane then getting between them in the CRX. If I went slower then 70 in the 3rd lane, I'd be a hazard.
