Default Jumping in Late

The 55mph speed limit went over like Prohibition and was repealed.

There are plenty of other alternatives to save fuel, starting with enforcing the existing speed limits. It seems like nearly everyone drives 10mph over the posted speed limit on the highway with impunity - enforce it. Set up videocam speed traps like that one in (Scottsdale?) Arizona.

Raise the CAFE standards, shift the Federal revenue a bit from income taxes to gas pump prices.....

61.5mpg lifetime - 82mpg in recent months
