Depends on what I am driving. My Dually usually the posted limit maybe a couple over. My wifes AMG 9-10 over or keep up with traffic especially when in Cali.

I have a 2022 Silverado work truck. Cruise has nothing to do with the screen. It's buttons on the left spoke of the steering wheel.




that's what i thought, but he's too absorbed with the infotainment screen to notice that. laugh2

That's mostly where I run if I have running partners on the interstate, but I watch my P's & Q's going thru your neck of the woods on 76/501. Had too many close calls with the SC Silver Bullets....lol. Especially in the 50 mph zone around Sparky's! eek

Yessir, they love to burn people up in the 50 mph zone through Rains near Sparky's. That's right where I live BTW. wave

Just overtaking trucks&buses. Or electric cars trying to save power smile

Depends, about 5-10 over usually. Many times it seems like I`m standing still.

I usually just keep up with the traffic in the hammer lane most of the time 80-90 mph during work traffic on 76 through Akron. When not keeping up with work traffic I just do around 15 over the limit. Ohio troopers are still on the hunt most of the time.

I drive 88 mph, any faster than that I will be going Back to the Future!

I talked with many Highway Patrol Captains. Most say if you stay under ten miles per hour over the posted speed limit you shouldn't get a ticket unless your doing something else Tail gating, unsafe lane changes and such. .

Before I retired, I drove Oklahoma turnpikes a lot.

My personal experience was five over no problem, six to ten over warning territory, over ten was ticket territory.

What blew me away one time was when I got a verbal warning coming home on a Saturday. I normally only drove weekdays.

The trooper made a comment that normally he only saw me during the week. This was on a 100 mile long turnpike!

During the day, as fast as I figure I can get away with. Usually about 10 - 20% over, but rarely over 88. At night, about 5 over.
