So if I am doing 65mph in a 55 zone and a car is passing me doing 80mph and loses control and hits me is that an accident or is that the person being stupid for driving 80 in a 55??

In the Goverment eyes I think that Recklass driving speeding starts at 20 over. So if you get caught doing 75 in a 55 or 55 in a 35 then you are a dangerous driver in the goverments eyes!
I do not completely understand what you are trying to say. But I'll reply anyway.

I have driven all of the highways you are talking about many times. All can be bad but not awful. Try Rt 78 between Clinton NJ and Easton PA. Up and down mountains with many overloaded tractor trailers doing 80+ on uneven pavement. IMO that's the most dangerous with little competition. But everybody who drives it knows what it's like and understands what's going on. I do not know any public road in NJ where having a number of cars in a pack doing 100+ at the same time is the norm.
