I am personally in favor of a national 55 limit. But one problem it would cause is worse highway congestion. If cars are moving slower, and assuming everyone is still traveling daily to get to where they need to go, the highways will have more cars on them at any given time.

But even so, if it were up to a vote of the populous (and it won't be) I would vote for 55. People need to slow down in general, not just their driving.
