TURKEYS AND TROPHIES: On Pa. Turnpike, 65 mph is fast enough

http://www.lehighvalleylive.com/opinion/index.ssf/2012/05/turkeys_and_trophies_13.html#incart_hbx FROM THE EXPRESS TIMES The Pennsylvania House Transportation Committee says it’s just keeping up with the times and technological advances in motor vehicles, but a committee-approved bill to raise the Pennsylvania Turnpike speed limit from 65 to 70 mph is unnecessary, and it will contribute to reduced reaction times for drivers to deal with hazardous conditions. Besides, the 65-mph limit is already a license to do 70 mph and higher with relative immunity. Just how fast does everyone need to go?
