120-110-100 for each lane.
Just tonight there was someone driving a camel doing 70k in the middle lane. rush hour on sunday at 9pm for a stretch. Too much turkey perhaps!

This isn't that expensive to do. Settles I-5 and salt lake cities I-15 have it.
Speed limits do influence the speed people go to a point. A fear of tickets does regulate speed. The Alberta TAC manual I believe states to try to set the speed limit to the 85th percentile speed as that reduces the gap between the 5th percentile speed and the 95th percentile speed.
