Google combines Maps and Waze teams in restructuring move

Only if you want to die!

The standard highway speed is 15mph over the speed limit here in CA.

If you follow the speed limit, you’ll be going too slow to effectively maneuver or see incoming cars and increase chances of a crash.

Ergo: break the law or die.

Depends entirely where in California. LA is a good 15-20 mph over, San Diego is more like 10-15 mph over, and the South Bay Area is more like 0-5 mph over (which drove me crazy coming from LA)

The pandemic was amazing for traffic. Flying up the 101 to SF at 95mph.

That's why the Cannonball Run article has a chapter [0] dedicated to the pandemic.

Agreed more or less (lived in all 3), although South Bay can be a tossup. I've felt slow doing 80 and fast doing 70.

Google Maps claims that much of the bay’s 101 is 55 mph. I don’t know if I believe that, but if true then it’s standard to do 20 above here.

Is there any evidence of this?
