I hate them.
I'm not talking about the low speed limit in a neighborhood.
I'm talking mostly about the highway. The speed limit used to be 70mph. Then in 1973 it was lowered to 55mph because of the gas shortage.
Here's the big problem. Cars are far more fuel efficient and safer now. Better handling, better brakes, air bags, etc. So there really should be no problem raising the limits.
Where it is especially crazy is when you're on a road trip. Most of our country is full of nothing. So the speed limit could easily be 80mph once you are in a rural area.

The goal is to keep going faster, until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death.
