This complete disregard for speed limits was a huge shock to me when I was driving in Florida 2 weeks ago. In quite a few EU countries we stick to the posted limits quite strictly. But in the US I was literally bullied into driving way above the limit (75 in a 55 zone) and was still getting overtaken on both sides - in one case even by a police car - and some people used turning lanes to overtake on the right. In addition to this everyone was slamming their brakes when they saw an empty police car parked by the side of the road. Crazy.
