They included an Isuzu Trooper with a kayak rack going 79 mph; a red Jetta with New Hampshire plates doing 77 mph, and a van with contractor racks clipping along at 83 mph. I've driven that road many times. 80 mph is a reasonable speed and traffic actually travels around 80. Driving slower or faster than the 80 mph area would be dangerous.

Last weekend I drove I-95 from Baltimore to Charleston, SC and back and I think my average speed was around 80-85 mph. I almost did not have a choice. Everyone was going that fast, especially 18 wheelers. As long as everyone agrees to go the same speed, it seems pretty safe to me. The problems occur when someone wants to drive 100 and another person wants to go 60.
Here in Maryland the cops have been doing the disguise thing for a while.

Man, they'd be busy on the I-5 between San Diego and LA
The entire 1,000 car wolfpack you are in is going 80!
