Most folks are generally content to clip along at the speed limit +/-, even in the #1 lane. But a lot of out of state drivers, of which I was one once, have a disregard for speed limits and considerably exceed normal traffic flow. It's dangerous, and actually kind of humorous.
Keeping it somewhat close to the speed limit is wise.
Although out in the desert, 70 in a 55 may not result in a traffic stop.
When I do short bursts of speed, it is not sustained and in carefully chosen locations.
