Reply to comment by [deleted] in Can we increase the speed limits? Like 55 on a highway is too slow. It should be 80. And 25 on a major road is like way too slow. We need speed limits increased by 25 everywhere at least. by [deleted]

There's no excuse for driving under the limit

You know what you're right. For every foot of precipitation, I slow down 1 mph from 5 over the speed limit.

I miss lockdowns. i81 was completely empty and I was always doing 100+ to get to work. Cops weren’t pulling anyone over because they were afraid of COVID. But you’re right, when it all lifted, accidents were through the roof!
