Depends on where you live and what the local laws are. Where I live (Melbourne, Victoria) most people drive _under_ the speed limit on the highway I take to work each day.

Our local police fine us for doing 2-3km over the limit, and the fines are steep. Most of us here wouldn't notice cars driving at the speed limit.

It's not the local laws, but the enforcement of such laws though.

And as I said, our laws are enforced to a rather strict degree.
