Had the unique experience of entering into Utah where the highway speed limit was 80mph (~ 130 km) and had no desire to drive any faster than that, it was a very comfortable speed for that road and everyone was going about the same speed so it didn't clog up or get a lot of people changing lanes to adjust.

For a long time in Nevada there were no speed limits (prior to the 55 law) and we'd drive up 395 toward Reno at 80 - 85 mph which was just fine.

It seems like you just have to believe that making a faster limit won't ratchet people to 'limit + 15' where they are when it is 65.
