The speed the driver perceives as safe, explains why drivers speed up at overtaking lanes. They are generally wider and straighter than the road just traveled, so the "slow" driver increases their speed to a comfortable one, usually the speed limit and its harder to pass them.

Straight roads are for fast cars, twisty roads are for fast drivers. I have or am neither.
