      Where do you live? In CO on the highways I always get tailgated by Subaru’s while speeding. I used to own one so I know they’re basically red lining it but they’re still flying along

        Probably someplace Subarus are ubiquitous and driving under the limit happens a lot, it just happens you see more Subarus doing it because, well, lots of Subarus.

        Where I live there always seems to be a tool going 5-10 under. Wouldn’t matter that much except it’s a metro area and just a couple of these clowns can really mess up traffic.

      where i live, it’s nissans. especially qashqai. i could swear those are physically unable to reach even 70% of the speedlimit. that’s the only vehicle you never see tailgating you. merging onto the highway behind them is scary because you are going 40 km/h where others are coming 100 km/h behind you.

      My 2017 outback has a 3km/h speedo error. Most cars have a 5km/h error. Where I live the slow lane runs at 95 in hundred zones and the fast lane at 100 to 105

      We do still have idiots who stop at the end of an entry ramp after falling to merge at a third of traffic speed, but they’re in all sorts of cars
