This is fair and I can't argue that. As someone who has adjusted over a decade ago, I completely get the annoyance of 'small town' or 'out of town' drivers.

They don't keep up with the flow of traffic, they don't know where they're going and Bass Pro area is rife with drivers like this at certain times of year.

I get it, tourism and all of that, but yeah, I know and feel the same. You're on an artery road even if it's just 5 lanes, if the speed limit is 40, you should be running 45 minimum. Running 40(or slower) just slows down traffic.

You're not in your small town of 20k or whatever. The speed limit is not 35mph. Go.

This is why when I'm in a place I'm not familiar with, my primary focus is flow of traffic. If everyone is going X speed, go X speed. I don't care what the sign says. That is a distinctly urban traffic phenomenon and something some visitors here simply do not understand.
