At 65 mph at the end of one hour one will be 3 miles further.

Now drop that to 25 (vs 20 legal limit) and an average time of maybe 20 + minutes.

I did not turn the crank on the math but it should be obvious the 5 additional mph are no big advantage except the wind in the hair and aggrivation to be behind someone going 20 mph!
