LexisNexis, which generates consumer risk profiles for the insurers, knew about every trip G.M. drivers had taken in their cars, including when they sped, braked too hard or accelerated rapidly.
You forget that in the States, they say “speed limit is X, so I go X+10”, sometimes even 20. It’s very common for comments to mention that the flow of traffic is literally 25% faster than the “limit” - it’s like culturally so many USians treat the limit as a lower limit. 🫣

The posted speed limit plus 5mph is considered normal where I’m from in America. 10 over is asking for a ticket.
I visited Texas once, and was amazed to see most everyone driving 20-30mph over the posted limit, even past the speed traps with no consequences.
Drove home going 85 and still being passed yesterday. I live in Texas.
If you’re not going as fast as they are, you’re a potential danger now.
This is particularly stupid considering that your average shitty brodozer is pretty much incapable of emergency braking from 85mph.
