When they raised the speed limit from 55 to 65 was the reall turning point for San Diego. Everyone went nuts on the roads, and it has stayed that way. Seems like they should have changeable speedlimit signs along the road based on congestion. Obviously if it is 4am and no one is out, going 65 or 70 is safe. When the raods are FULL and people are still driving that speed and trying to go even faster… not safe!
I read somewhere that the number of serious accidents went up significantly after they raised the speed limit too… Anyone know if that is true?
It has to be a big waste of oil/gas resources when everyone drives that much faster as well. Seems stupid in times like these… Why dont they just lower it back down to 55 except in the boonies?
