As it turns out it doesn’t actually cost that much on regular transit, there’s an AIRPORT SURCHARGE because it’s an “airport train”.
No wonder Americans don’t use public transit, even when the system exists it’s ridiculously difficult and expensive to use.
70 MPH is the standard highway speed limit around here. And functionally, the traffic tends to flow ~10% higher than whatever the posted speed limit is. So a 70 MPH highway will tend to flow anywhere from 75-80 MPH instead. Cops won’t even bother pulling you over unless you’re well into the low 80’s.
We even have an 85 MPH highway. Since it’s mostly through a rural area and has an extremely fast limit, people 100% treat it like the autobahn.
The only time people actually respect highway speed limits are when it drops to 55 MPH. Lots of small towns will drop to 55 MPH, and the rural cops tend to set up speed traps for anyone doing over 55. They’re brutal, (and fighting them usually requires showing up to court in the middle of fucking nowhere,) so speed trap towns are basically the only time that drivers will actually go slightly below the limit.
