Thank you.
In Texas, at least Travis County, you can go up to 25 MPH over the posted limit and be in the gray area of "safe and reasonable" -- that gray area is determined by weather conditions, other vehicles on the road, and condition of your vehicle. Technically 1 MPH over the posted limit could get you a ticket, but anything under 10 MPH over, assuming clear weather, is easy to claim that you were just going with the flow of traffic. (If you ever get hit by the speed trap on I35 in Kyle I've used this to get out of a ticket, going 80 in a 65.)
The less you cause other drivers to have to change lanes, the better. The less traffic congestion you cause by driving slower than the flow of traffic, the better. This is compassionate driving. If Tesla makes cars that drive selfishly it's bad for Tesla -- it's not just about the person in the car, it's about the safety of everyone on the road.
(But be careful, you'll get downvoted on here just for implying that you have ever been somewhere other than SF.)
