I can't tell you the countless times I've been driving, lets say doing 90mph, very normal on that road, and a motorcycle comes out of no where and passes me doing no less that 120mph. And, sometimes they have passengers on the back with them. And, often it is not one bike but 8-10 bikes that come out of nowhere.. I've seen them doing speeds of 150+..

People around here drive like bats out of hell.. The going speed on the 393 (the highway from here to Concord that I take to school) is usually 75 during rush hour, at least 80 normally. I have to go to Nashua once a week (maps.google.com if you don't know your way around NH) and the going speed on I93 north of the Hooksett Tolls is often around 90. \
My friend's brother has a Dodge Stealth Turbo and one day he was on 393 and was racing a Vette Z06. He took it up to 150. The vette was in the lane next to him (the highway was empty).. The Vette pulls up next to him flips him off, drops a gear, and zooms off... Or so I hear. IDK if Vettes can really go that fast?
