The more relevant question rarely asked in this type of article is: with our roads in a constant state of disrepair despite exorbitant fuel taxes pi**ed up the wall by spendthrift vote buyers and union contracts, why are we obsessed with some artifice posted on a sign?

tickets = revenue. the higher the speed limit, the fewer the tickets.

Understood but these articles always imply that speed = unsafe driving which is obviously not the case.

Driving over minefield-type highways is much riskier than a few mph more on the speedo.
