The double-nickel is dead but not buried
Article Abstract:
The federal government's 1995 decision to return to the states the right to set speed limits resulted in the elimination of the 55-mph highway speed limit. Opponents are lobbying to keep speed limits at 55 mph, claiming that the higher speed limits will result in more auto accidents and higher insurance rates.
