Or go the posted speed limit.

This stretch of road has alot of access points to shopping, services, restaurants, etc. At any time a car, cart, bike, wheelchair, pedestrian, animal and on and on can enter your path unexpectedly, and you have a much greater chance of avoiding a collision if you are travelling at the speed limit of 20mph.
Good explanation.
