85 MPH speed limit being considered for Texas

[Vertnut]

It's the only thing that makes that state intersting.. 134mph.

Not 133. Not 135. 134. I'll bet you don't get passed much. The times I've been on that toll road, I don't even see other cars, much less troopers.

There will always be some doucher who is going 90, riding your ass in the left lane, flashing his lights because he wants to go the speed of light.

135 is just ridiculous.

Turnpike from OKC to Tulsa I do the same thing...now that damn fast though!

So you revived a thread from April to pass along this tidbit of information to us? I'm glad I read it now I can move on with my life.

Ludacris even

[Cooter]

I already set the cruise at 90

Now I'll have to bump it up to 115-120 in order to stay awake

[Damnittsteve]

bad idea, alot of people cant handle 65mph without going goofy.

I regularly drive 90-100+ w/ no problems

If you increase the speed that much I think they should also pass a Left Lane is Passing only law as well. That way the law cant get the slow pokes out of the lanes

Wish it was the case for HW287. I take that when I go back to Amarillo and there's always a couple here and there. At times it's pretty heavy.

Yep. Speed trap central once you get on the west side of WF.

they will have that law in the rural areas they plan to implement this. Was it approved?

LULZ at the people thinking this would be in any kind of remotely populated areas. *shakes head*
