As an HGV driver, nothing is more annoying than having cars cruising at the same speed in between trucks (it's bloody dangerous for a start)- but it will be at 56mph max, not 65.....
And white vans are usually in the outside lane, unless also fitted with a speed limiter!
A lot of people cruise at an indicated 70mph, but don't realise their speedo is by design, optimistic, and that they are actually doing 65. No idea how accurate a Model S speedo is, but would guess very, as likely GPS driven. I've never seen one on a dual carriageway going anything except 70mph +, so maybe you're seeing chauffeur driven or airport taxi cars....
