I must have followed one in May down Morse as it was going 35mph across the Lake Sumter bridge and even faster south on Morse. In fact, many of the Street Legals that I personally have seen on TV roads were traveling at least 30 mph. But what the heck, I encounter the same on golf trails around TV.

However, what OP encountered was something entirely different. I sincerely hope to hear what the Sheriff's Office had to say regarding the lady who was in a "road rage" that could have caused you to have a serious accident. You were in the right and she was definitely wrong.
