I drive as fast as I judge is safe I know my limits and the limits of my car. On a lot of highways that is well above the posted limit. I leave myself enough space to stop and I stay aware of my surroundings. If traffic is congested or road conditions necessitate it I slow down, often to less than the limit. It's about judgement and I haven't caused an accident in 20 years of driving so I trust mine. Having an arbitrary limit is stupid and causes more congestion than there would be otherwise. Proper lane usage is the solution to traffic problems, not speed limits.

And here we have it! The actual crux of the issue! People like you who are just SO confident in their abilities! It doesn't matter if you've been driving for 100 years, buddy, all it takes is some wild animal or some other driver to fuck your shit up, which will cause an even worse chain reaction. Go forth, little NASCAR driver. You're too dumb to see reason anyway.
