I guess it's just the guys with the low powered cars that are always speeding...sorta goes along with the phenomena where old guys driving fast muscle cars and Corvettes are always just poking along on the interstate, they don't have anything to prove and are just enjoying the ride in a nice car
    Not everyone is speeding because theyre showing off or racing. 90-95 is a perfectly acceptable speed on i75.... If you get on i75... its not a bunch of civics racing each other across country.... its vans... trucks, suvs.... all doing 90-95.... and traveling safely.

    TN does seem to move at a slightly slower pace on the interstate than Georgia. I make the trip from Nashville to Atlanta fairly often, and I usually keep the cruise control in the 79-82 mph range (with a 70 mph speed limit). In Tennessee I'm usually one of the faster cars on the road. In Georgia I get passed a bit more often.

    Sidenote: I think a few of you have a different interpretation of "flow of traffic" than I do
