Statistics do show that there are more deadly accidents with a 75mph speed limit vs 55mph. The reason for that? Look at how much faster you are driving when you go over the 75 mph limit. When you drive on a 55mph highway people pass you going 65 to maybe about 80ish.
On our trip to Colorado we took I-80 and the speed limit is 75. We drove 80 and we were being passed by people going 85 to 100+.
If some one changes lanes infront of you with out looking and you hit them you're better off at 65 vs. 100.
