The double-nickel is dead but not buried

Article Abstract:

The federal government's 1995 decision to return to the states the right to set speed limits resulted in the elimination of the 55-mph highway speed limit. Opponents are lobbying to keep speed limits at 55 mph, claiming that the higher speed limits will result in more auto accidents and higher insurance rates.

Speeding to conserve

Article Abstract:
