It won't affect all of us, but those long trips thru West TX on I-10 should be better now. Hopefully this is the beginning of several 80 mph zones in TX.

i like the sound of this already . all this means is that when people wanna race on that part of road the ticket wont be as bad . but on a serious note im glad they raised the speed limit. i think 65 is too slow for our busy roads.

 

YES.. now i can go even faster on my way to school

 

nice! thats a good start... now we just gotta get them to do that in Tarrant! (ya, as if THAT will happen!)

 

Thats great. It would be even greater if they gave me my money back on the ticket I got on I-10 while coming back from California a few years ago. I was doing 80

That cop was a dick. He also gave me a ticket for being in the passing lane. Nobody ever gets those tickets!!!

 

damn that cop you. <--- you and cop

 

Well unfortunately, that the way it works. Very few cops get owned for obvious reasons...

 

I-45 needs to be 80+ MPH. that would be great!

 

they just need to make it 100 already

 

Fo Real Tho!

 

i go 90 already on i-10.

i say texas needs to be one big autobahn on all highways.

 

ya, since we have some of the most responsible drivers on the planet

 

I'm confused - West, TX is on I35, just north of Waco...

(heh you gotta stop in West for a kolache some time... love the hots with cheese!)

(West TX being in Central TX still bugs me...)

 

I wish more people would get those tickets. Not much pisses me off more than cars running side by side going too slow-and you cant pass them. If people would only use the left lane for passing (as they are supposed to) that wouldnt ever happen.

 

Screw the east coast. I'm moving to Texas! (and then I'll be closer to NitroDave too)

 

he meant West Texas as in the state of West Texas, in the country Texas... there are other states in Texas like Central Texas, South Texas, East Texas, etc.
