And this doesn't seem to be a local phenomena. It seems like everywhere I go the rule is the same. (Maybe not in Canada, I don't know, never been there.)

I think the general rule is 75 mph in the "pass lane". I always go that speed and never gotten a ticket. Limit is 65 on 408 expressway here and on shitty I-4 it's 55. Of course I get on 417 expressway and people are blowing by me doing 85-90, think speed limit is 70.
