Faster isn't Better

Why do we drive too fast?  Seems like if the speed limit is 25 most people will go 35, if it's 45 they will go 60, if it's 60 they will go 75. I've also noticed that the quality and mood of a neighborhood is directly related to the speed of vehicles through it.  Seems to me the perfect neighborhood road is unpaved but with loose gravel, about one and half car widths (so someone has to yield when there is opposing traffic), and a speed limit of 10-15. My life isn't really better just because I go faster.
