You're saying that you never exceed the speed of traffic in the lane next to you, by even a little bit?
If you exceed the traffic of the lane next to you, you will have low "following distance" to it, and a deceleration disadvantage. Plus, humans have reaction times.
- omgwtfbyobbq 4y agoI'm saying that if I exceed the speed of another vehicle and that vehicle merges into my lane or I merge into theirs, and I hit their vehicle from behind, I'm at least partially at fault. If their vehicle is fully in the lane, I'm almost certainly going to be completely at fault.

- omgwtfbyobbq 4y agoYup. Relative speed doesn't matter. A vehicle in the lane next to you can force you to crash.
