Have you never driven on an interstate highway outside of rush hour?
People go the speeds they deem reasonable for the conditions. Sometimes this is in the ballpark of the speed limit. In many situations it is much faster. People don't follow unenforceable rules unless they agree with them.
If "the majority are misbehaving" the definition of "misbehaving' needs to be adjusted.
