parkway speed reduction
 

whats up with the reduction between 80-100 i think it said 55mph effective march 1st.

It wont effect me... I go 85mph regardless. :mrgreen:

Last weekend I was in Jersey and saw at least 5 cops pulling people over.

i drive everyday i try to watch my speed the last thing i want is a ticket

I have a place in Brick I head to on most weekends and I noticed the LED signs saying the change. This was done due to the amount of deaths they've seen on that portion of the highway since the 55 MPH speed limit was increased to 65. So now we're at 55 again. Oh well.

it has already been proven that speed has nothing to do with more crashes (research was already done in a few states and they have found significant decreases in accidents)... But it sucks anyway.

It kills me to have to do 55... 65 was atleast tolerable

its for generating additional revenue...

thats one of the only sections of the parkway i use. people still go 80 ish.

You know, it says "Conditions Permitting" under the new 55mph signs. If everyone else is going 90, then I don't think conditions permit going 55, right? Why else would they put that there?

Speed limits like these are ridiculous. I feel I can safely drive my car at 80-90 on the p-way or any major 2 lane road I don't see why it's that big of a deal haha.
