Anyone supporting the 55 mph speed limit should be forced to drive at 55 from Eastern Iowa to Western Wyoming. I used to drive regularly from Denver to Omaha in 7 hours, 25 minutes (avg. speed 74-75 for trip, actual about 80 with one time out for gas and whatever). The trip is now 10.5 to 11 hours, and I feel one heck of a lot more tired (bored?) when I get there. Ah, to be back to the days when you could expect a warning ticket for 82 mph. 55 - Blackmail we can live without!
