Funny, in the US I always drove in areas where the max speeds were at least 60, sometimes 70... and I was usually driving at least 80mph, as a rule. I got impatient with the slow speeds, too.
But living in Iceland, the max is 45 or 55 (90 km/h is the highest)... and I've come to really appreciate it, actually. Not to mention it saves a SHITLOAD of gas by driving just a bit slower... no doubt about that. So I might be a convert to driving more conservative speeds in the US, we'll see.
