Then they show a small town along a state highway with a sign that says "35" and the native responds "35"

Yes, when you approach a small town on a small highway in Texas, assume the speed will drop from whatever 75, 70, 65 speed limit down, probably to 35 in the middle of town, and assume that there are cops waiting to give folks a ticket for speeding through said town.
Yup, I wasn’t paying attention and the slowdown happened well outside of the actual town. Should have known better, I spent 2.5 years working in TX and drove the route many times. Karma catching up with me I guess.
