in CA, everybody speeds, all the time.   People also tailgate here like crazy... today i was driving home and some a**hole was following me so close that she was practically touching my rear bumper. (I say she b/c thats what it was... some ditzy high school chick by the looks of it, in a brand new SUV. Stupid dumb b**** talking on her cell phone all the while... I hate those people. ) 
I can't stand tailgaters. Every time someone rides my a**, i hope that their car spontaneously bursts into flames and explodes with the driver still in it. 
 
 
speeding is practicaly a necessity.
If you drove the limit here, some people would literally run you down, especially on the freeway.  People drive crazy here. (I've never driven out of state so I don't know what its like there.) I know a few tricks to help from getting nabbed, and I use a radar detector. (not a jammer)
