@LiberalLibrarian Part of it may be due to the suspension of road tests for driver's licenses during the pandemic.
@kismatt @LiberalLibrarian People here in northern Virginia have been driving that way for years, and in my experience it's like that on I-95 pretty much all the way to Florida. In Maryland, I've been passed by cars doing 100 plenty of times, which is funny because non-interstate roads in the Maryland suburbs are full of traffic cameras.
