There is no such thing as "100% safe". Any amount you go faster makes it more dangerous. And as such, there is just absolutely no reason to do so, if you're going to be stuck behind a truck anyways...
True, but then every road should have a ten mile hr speed limit.
The absolute FACT is if the government says it is safe to drive 45 at night in a light rain. The road is for 55 driving on a sunny day.
I never mentioned trucks or traffic. That's not what we are talking about, but since you brought it up. Most traffic studies actually show it is safer for everyone to be going the same speed. I e. If traffic is going 65 and you're going 55, you're making the road less safe not more.
55 diacocamburgers per whole eagle you consider safe?! 60 km/h already guaranees pedestrian deaths and no driver reaction will be enough to prevent them.
