    Some states are 70mph, and most cops won't pull people over unless they're doing 10-15mph over. Unless you are just really unlucky XD

      Not sure why the downvotes. (Some states are 80mph actually!) Speeding enforcement in the United States is fairly loose, with usually roughly a 10mph buffer. (The exception being various "speed traps", atypically mostly rural towns that rely on ticket revenue for an outsized portion of their town budget.) I think this adds to the problem with left lane issues; even if the "true" speed limit is 80mph, if the "posted" speed limit is 70mph, some people will do no more than 70mph no matter where they are.

    Yes. Speeding will result in frequent overtaking. Hence the use of the overtaking lane.
