Default Re: Driving well under the speed limit: good idea or bad?

Gave this a little thought. You might actually LOWER the collective MPG (of all the cars on the road near you) by doing this, because you would force others to slow down (without capturing the wasted energy) and regain original speed if you drive a lot slower than permitted.

I do notice that Prius drivers keep to the limit, as in EXACTLY the limit (due to the digital reading ?)
