Maybe I am reading your post wrong, but are you REALLY saying that the way I feel is baloney? Really?
First of all, please don't tell me how I feel. I would NEVER presume to know how another poster feels and I certainly wouldn't tell them that the way they feel is "baloney."
Second, I along with dozens of other GEM drivers drive on roads where the speed limit is 35 mph on a daily basis. It is legal and we obviously feel safe enough to do it. Please don't project your own fears onto others.
Third, as mentioned in my first post on this thread, I only drive on roads with a 30/35 mph speed limit IF there are two lanes. If there are two lanes it is easy enough for a faster vehicle to pass. That is why we have passing lanes.
