Agreed -- lived there most of my driving life. I remember back in the 80's when the 65 limit came out, truckers would play the "55-Game" in each lane and block traffic. The "Flying Tire Salesmen" put a stop to that.



Ohio has the distinction for the biggest 65 MPH speed limit signs when they first came out:



Whenever I come back to visit, I take the limit VERY seriously (more so than normal). I remember one trip, we counted over 30 speed traps along the highway (that we could see!)
