Try going 55 on 285. I dare ya . Heck, I was going 75 and had a cop behind me, so I swung over. He passed me like I was standing still. Most cops in the ATL metro used to watch swerving moreso than speeding. Guess that's not cutting it in today's economy.

Also, the 85 speed limit is out in the middle of nowhere. Basically on places like I-10 where there are no city's or towns for 50 miles at a time. It's not like they're slapping 85 signs in a busy metro like Houston or DFW.
