Stricken with a sudden bout of rationality, the TX state government proposes raising the speed limits on two highways to 80 mph, reflecting the measured 80th percentile speed.

You're forgetting about all the damn Texans.

But you still have to live in Texas.

If we are going to have a speed limit, it should be 130 in West Texas and 100 in East Texas.

But, Texas is still the best state in the country.
