well... it will take you in many instances nearly half the time to get from point A to point B for one.... for another, I would not be under threat of being nabbed by an overzealous cop with a tight city budget just because I am trying to avoid falling asleep by driving at the blistering speed of 75 mph.... Remember that I am suggesting these speeds are allowed in places where it is wide open... near cities, we can reduce it to 85 - 90 mph (depending on how near are the intersections) and in cities I will abide by the existing limits Imagine driving in the middle of Arizona where not even lizards are nearby (under a blazing heat),.... and you are driving a numbing 75 mph... oh my..it hurts to even think it.... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz and fall asleep to boot. :) bottom line is that i believe the best we can hope for is a happy medium....i was thrilled when the speed limit on the federal highway was raised from 55 back to 70...and as a general rule you can get away with 5 to 10 mph over without being ticketed and then there will always be those on the road who are unsafe at any speed... <g> but i'm with you...pn the open road...i just wanna go fast.. :)
