I recall years ago when I was on the road to Ithaca from Syracuse airport, everyone was going at least 80mph, a lot of people doing 90mph...Is that normal?
In California, my experience is that in Norcal, most people drive between 0-5 over the limit, while in Socal most people drive 10-15 over the limit. 65mph is the most common speed limit in CA for multi-lane roads, with 70 on the I-5 being the exception. Single lane per direction roads are usually 45 or 55.
