55 alive

As I am driving down the road going 55 miles per hour, I am being eatin' alive.
I am being passed by every vehicle in site.
So, I speed up to 60.
They continue to eat me alive, passing on hills, swerving in front of me to miss the car that will soon meet them head on. I slow down so they can pull safely in front of me.
And I wonder as I wander...
Why is the speed limit 55 miles per hour?
No one drives that, the cops won't even pick you up until 62 miles per hour.
So again I ask...
Why is the speed limit 55 miles per hour?
My vote is slow these people down!
You have much better control of your car at 35 miles per hour. The bumps in the road don't seem as bad, you are safer...
and as he speeds past me going at least 70,
swerves in front of me to miss the on coming car,
there he sits one inch in front of me at the stop sign??
