I'd like some clarity on the California towing speed limit

I just got to California yesterday and noticed the signs that said vehicles towing trailers are limited to 55 mph. I wasn't sure if that applied to me towing my toad (not a trailer) but I slowed down...

Spent all my life in California before retiring - speed limit is 55mph for you. You need to stay in the right two lanes unless an interchange is coming up.
Thanks for clearing that up. I'm glad I slowed down to the 55 speed limit. I went through about 5 exits in a row with left exits. How far ahead of time is sufficient to get in the left lane?


When I see the fat stripes on the road I move over. Have never had any problems.
