Most of Denmark's highways don't have that limit. Some of ours have 120 now, though.

I don't know what the highest speed limit is in the US, but I think there are speed limits on every highway here.

It's 65mph on most highways of the Northeast, like the Massachusetts Turnpike or the NY Thruway.  Of course I'v driven at 75 on them most times and get passed by others going at least 85-90mph. ::)

I'm not sure, but I've heard it's 75 mph. But in Europe we had no speed limits outside the towns and cities for a long time. Even Sweden had free speed on most roads until the late 1960's.

It's 75 miles per hour on rural stretches of interstate highways in Colorado, I know.  I saw a speed limit of 80 miles per hour on one stretch of interstate highway in Texas.  I have not seen any speed limits higher than 80 miles per hour from my driving across the country.

That's why they introduced speed limits here, too.

... but do we really need them on our bicycles? Some people here think that we do and there is a (fifteen mile per hour, I think) speed limit on the Monan Trail, which is a beautiful converted-to-giant-sidewalk railroad tracks, open for all to walk or run or bike on, but the bikers are no longer free to enjoy themselves.

This anxiety to save lives at any cost must come from narrow-minded people without any fantasy (well, they are bureacrats, so what can one expect?). What if the speed limits, gun laws, drug bans, alcohol and tobacco taxes etc etc save a lot of lives? The lives they save most probably will end in a nursing home bed, where the poor fuckers might be tormented for decades before they die. What's so great about that? I consider it much better to die relatively young and really live when I live, not to become an old fart that no-one really cares about anyway, beacuse the "good" society restricts and bans evertything that makes life worth living.
