There is one fairly big difference. People who drive cars have to be licensed, with the legal liability that goes with that, and the potential to completely lose that privilege, which is a constraint.

When I hear people here saying that they can go right up to the speed limit on a bike in poor visibility without any concerns, it makes me think cyclists should go through the same process.

I'm a cyclist, and I rode that same stretch, and my bike computer told me I never went above 25 mph. Because I value my life.
