I drove on the Atlanta beltway last year. I gotta admit, people drive fast there, but the roads are very smooth and the lanes are really wide. I was doing 90-100 easily at times becasue the conditions permitted. If I were approaching you going 80-85 in the left lane, I would have flashed my brights twice and signaled left while in the passing lane.

To put things into perspective...

Why would people want to go faster than me when I am already doing extralegal speeds? The speed limit is so much lower than what I was already going. I am the pacesetter on this road, no one should want to go faster than me.
