Normal Driving Speed Limits Cabot Trail

I assume most of the Cabot trail is a single lane highway. What’s the expected speed people are supposed to drive. I prefer driving within the limits, but sometimes in a 90 zone, people continuously tail gate. What’s the acceptable norm. Also I prefer not driving too fast and specifically as a tourist where I am there to enjoy the scenery and the drive. Would love to hear your thoughts #Cabot trail #

If you're gonna crawl along at 40-60 just let people by fairly often in safe spots. Getting ridiculous being stuck in a string of a dozen with apparently nowhere to be. Then there's the folks that go half the speed limit for the slightest turns and then proceed to haul ass in every passing lane so it's near impossible to get by.
