On an interstate highway we are rarely any more of an impediment to traffic flow than a heavily loaded, underpowered truck so we should not use that as a guideline since traffic copes with that constantly.

First buy a Valentine Radar dector. Now you can drive 62 to 64 mph on all interstates without worrying about a CHP using radar on you.
The speed limit on almost all interstate highways is now 70 mph or higher. We travel at 62-65 mph on the interstates most of the time. It seems to be just fast enough that we don't get run over, but not so fast you have to stop at every other exit for gas. With stops we average about 50 mph.
