Analyzing Collective Behavior on the Highway
On a specific stretch of highway, the legal speed limit is 65 mph. However, it is widely observed that nearly all drivers travel at 75 mph. Police enforcement is rare, and drivers who adhere to the 65 mph limit are often tailgated or flashed with headlights by other drivers. Based on the definition of a social norm, analyze whether the collective behavior of driving at 75 mph in this situation qualifies as one. Justify your conclusion.
