In CT I found, and the bulk of the traffic during non peak hours showed as well (by driving 10mph over) that the posted speed limit on most roads was about 10mph below what it should have been. There were only three sections of road I found in 15+ years of driving in CT where the speed limit was appropriate for road conditions.

Now that I'm in TX I'm finding that the speed limits here are set appropriately for road conditions and I see very few people exceeding these speed limits.

As far as speed goes, people will drive a speed that is comfortable for the given road conditions and the bulk of people seem to find the same speed comfortable on a given road.

As for other bad behavior such as "leap frogging" I don't see this occurring much when traffic is flowing smoothly at the appropriate speed limit. The "leap frogging" seems to occur during congested sub speed limit traffic conditions where the arrogant folks who believe they are better than others on the road decide they need to bob and weave to try to get ahead of everyone else.

Other bad behavior such as inappropriate lane use i.e. "granny" doing 45mph in the left lane of the highway seems to get no attention from the police in this country even though it is a significant hazard. I've heard that in other countries this is not the case and there is enforcement.
