Default Re: A meditation on the speed limit

I think they are luck they didn't get harassed, or followed after the stunt. I wonder what they would have done if they came up on tbaleno going 45? Pulse and glide in unison?

Seems to me there are lots of stretches of interstate that have speed limits that are too low. All of Wisconsin for one.

Had to laugh about this one, around 7 years ago the speed on 36 coming into Boulder from Denver dropped from 65 to 55 as you enter Boulder. Citizens that live along the highway complained to the city about the road noise and requested it be dropped to 45.

State Traffic Engineers were brought in to study it, and RAISED the speed to 65.
