I have a thesis in my mind about how environments influence opinions on this subject. You simply do not find as much excessive speeding in Oregon. Nor are many, if any, surface streets marked for speeds over 45 mph within a city or town limit, and it is rare to see speed limits violated by more than 10 mph, even on freeways (except I-84 through the Columbia River Gorge).
