California Towing Speed Limit
While towing into and back out of California in July I noticed there were a bunch of signs saying the speed limit was 55 mph for any vehicle towing something. Does that limit get strictly enforced or...

I have never known a speed limit sign being a "suggestion". I think 5 mph leeway is common and maybe 8-9; usually 10 or more means trouble. At 70 pulling a trailer you are passing the 18 wheelers and just asking for a ticket IMHO.
Consistently passing too many 18 wheelers in a row will increase the probability of getting pulled over by a Ca. Bear. In my experience, running 63-65 is ok except when passing 18 wheelers then I may temporarily hit 70 but then back off after passing. I would never drive without my Valentine Radar on, especially at night. My radar will pick up Bears/radar in all 4 directions front/back, left/right. 1 speeding ticket will buy you a Valentine radar unit:)
