Why are we so weird about speed limits (US)?

The older I get the more I give up on speeding. After doing the math I realized a long time ago that it rarely saved me any actual time, and moreso just gave me the illusion of making up time by cutting ahead and being the line leader. At most it was a minute, usually less. The only time speeding has ever actually saved me time is over long distances, and it's a tradeoff with higher fuel consumption. Shit costs too much these days, I'll putt along at the limit and save a few dollars while just leaving on time (or accepting being a little late).
