For all you Speeders out There.....

Pretty interesting. The only state in the US that has a interstate speed limit of 55 is...Hawaii. All other states have speed limits of 65 or more.

But my question is, how can Hawaii even have an interstate speed limit, when there is no way for them to have a interstate highway.

My grandpa (of my dad's side of the family) does not believe in speed limits and thinks they are wrong. As his whole family grew up in Montana. Which before a few years ago did not have speed limits.

Yep I got all the ones in Lima covered. I am batting .500 and that is not good considering there are only 4.

That's funny- I checked some for my area, and they're not too far off. Mostly the cops here don't seem to care much about speeding. On the road I take to work (state hwy) you can pretty much do what you want, even if there are cops around. Hell, usually the state cops are speeding past the speeders. They will occasionally set up a real speed trap with several cops to chase after cars, but that's really the only time you need to watch out.
