the 20mph for carts is reasonable provided a driver can maintain 20mph on a MMP but I'll bet they actually average 16mph or less.

So those who bump up their carts speed up help because they can safely and efficiently pass a cart going 16mph and slower preventing bottlenecks Again a safe pass and a return to the allowable limit. And again given the traffic of carts, bikes walkers the average speed drops to about 16mph.

Same on 466 /466A Its agonizing to have some driver remain steadfast in the left lane going 40mph less and it happens often
Well said. I always chuckle as I'm behind some left lane laggard on 466 in a 45mph zone and they are sitting on 30. I just KNOW these people go home and complain on TOTV about speeders.
If they haven't done harm to you, mind your own business and get out of the left lane!
