Episode Details

Speeding’s become the new normal on the road, with half of drivers admitting they feel safer going 10 mph over — and most just follow the flow. Thirty-one percent speed to beat slow drivers, 25% to save time, and 21% to avoid holding up others. AAA warns against peer pressure, but the biggest motivators for slowing down? Fear of tickets (79%), crash risk (72%), and bad weather (60%). Just a month after Governor Kehoe signed a law raising rural interstate limits from 70 to 75 mph starting August 28, the data shows we’re still treating speed limits like suggestions — safety should always come first, no matter what the sign says.
