content: There is a detente with the police currently that is not likely to be disturbed. They know the reason we tolerate ridiculously low official speed limits is because 99% of the time we can drive 5-10 MPH over without getting a ticket. If they started doing this, every person in America would immediately be flooded with dozens of speeding tickets, and the public outcry would force every county road and public highway in the nation to increase the limit by 10. I'd actually have no problem rigorously driving under the limit if it were 65 on county roads and 80 on highways.
