It's not always about absolute speed. Its about relative speed as well. Doing 51 mph in a 30mph residential zone is stupid. People are crossing streets not expecting a car to be moving that fast, kids are playing in yards, etc. On the freeway, if you're moving that much faster than the flow of traffic you're probably weaving around, cutting people off. All it takes is one wrong move...
