[QUOTE="ol'browneye, post: 531099, member: 14003"] I had my on-car with me one day. I was driving on a paved county road going down a slight grade. I kept the p5 in 3rd gear just to hold it back a little so I wouldn't have to ride the brake and it was kind of whining a little. My sup looks at me and says "Come on! Let's go!" I looked at my speedometer then looked at him and said "I'm doing 37 in a 35 now! I'm not going any faster!" as I hit the brake. Believe it or not he said "Speed limits are just a suggestion!" This is the same sup that told me "If you drive fast over pot holes and washboards, it smooths them out!" HUH? I tend to drive 22-23mph in resi areas as I feel it is a safe speed for the conditions. If there are kids present or parked cars on the streets, I usually lock it down a little more. I have one subdivision that I sometimes get in a split. I don't get there usually until 6-7pm. The streets are narrow and at that time of the day there are cars parked on both sides of the street and kids playing and also parents sitting out watching. You will find me doing 5-10mph with the flashers on! [/QUOTE]
