I like the other comment, "No national speed limit will cost lives"

Any guess on what states will raise their limits?  I'm sure Missouri
won't.   I suspect that Texas will have a few 70Mph roads and
Oklahoma might follow a lead from Texas.  There are other states
that have wide open interstates but I don't expect to see any
"Speed limit 100" signs anytime soon.
