True... and not true. - That depends on the part you're in, and when you drive. - A other reason is more the
fuel-prices over there will keep ya from speeding long stretches.
The fact still remains that you can every once in a while (as traffic permits) put the pedal to the metal, and
don't worry about harrasment from cops etc.

Not really.... if it makes ya uncomfortable.... you shouldn't speed to begin with. - I'm rather more relaxed.
I guess it also depends what kinda car. - If you're pushing a little Ford beyond it's limits... that would make one be
uncomfortable, but if you got the propper car and equipment... there is no problem.

Tip: not only the traffic in front of you, but way ahead of you too, since you'll be catching up to
it very quickly (outta obvious reasons).
