Incidently, in California they don't seem to have any speed limits.  I
recently drove over 2000 miles in a round-the-state trip, and I didn't see
a single vehicle stopped for speeding, even though the traffic was moving at
speeds between 60 and 90.  70 to 75 appeared to be the best speed to "stay
with the traffic".

I spent July in CA (Anaheim - LA area) and the speeders were being caught
often.  Nearly every time I headed toward the Riverside area, I would see
people caught.  55 is fine with me and I chortled every time I saw one.

The people seem to average about 60 - 65 mph in the LA area with
a few getting up to 75 or so.
