Here comes 80 MPH?

HB406 is making it's way through the legislative process. This bill would allow the Utah Department of Transportation to increase speed limits above 75 MPH in certain circumstances. I can think of some great candidate areas on the interstates in Utah. The drive on I-80 west of Tooele would be a great place to increase the speed limit. I think this bill has some well thought out scenarios which would make raising the speed limit acceptable.
