Bill > SB1408

This bill increases the maximum speed limit from 70 to 75 miles per hour on rural interstates and freeways, which are defined as parts of the federal interstate highway system or other divided highways of at least ten miles with four or more lanes that are not part of the federal interstate system and are located outside of urbanized areas. The bill also clarifies that this change applies to the uniform maximum speed limits established for these types of roads, and that the Department of Transportation may still set higher or lower speed limits if recommended for safety or traffic flow, but no higher than 75 miles per hour.
