Damn, I hope they don't lower the speed limits again. I travel for work and it would suck to kicked back to 55mph again.
What Sammy said.  It would really suck to go back to driving at slug speeds.

But this is even worse:

More speed cameras could also help make roads safer, Friedman added. These are automated systems that take photos of speeders and their license plates, and then send the offender a ticket in the mail.
Thank the idiots that just don't pay attention when they are driving. I honestly could not drive 55 or even 60 on a road trip. Not possible. Something like this would surely put the airline industry back on track  tho ;)
well it is 75 mph here in Az on the Interstates, 65 on Az state roads, and as much as 45 in some towns. Most of the western states are the same except Cali.

I can easily do the speed limit whatever it may be. I just set the cruise, and keep an eye out for speed changes. It is just a matter of deciding to do so and then implementing that decision. I don't like to break the traffic laws, here in Arizona they have photo radar, and the tickets are over two hundred bucks minimum.
