A truck speeding at 65 mph in any lane is going 10 mph over the speed limit. They should be cited.I have NEVER seen a semi going faster than 65, except once and it was going 70 (the car speed limit) and I used him to draft behind But seriously, it's super rare that any semi in CA is going over 65 that I have a very hard time believing that not only are all the semis (or vast majority) in your area going so fast that they honk at you for being in the right lane going the speed limit.
Try driving on 60 or 10 freeways in Socal if you want to see semis speeding. Most long haul truck drivers are paid by the mile. The faster they go, the more they earn per mile. Increasing speed from 55 to 65 mph means a pay increase of 18% per hour.
