================================================ Subject: Re: NCR: speed limit From: "King_Dovregubben" To: Date: Thu 6 Sep 2001 20:07:50 -0700 ================================================ Not quite true. The Feds tried to force a national speed limit (something they didn't have the constitutional power to do) by basically telling states that a 55 MPH speed Limit was a prerequisite for receiving federal highway funds. Montana basically said "Keep your fucking money, we all have 4-wheel drive". Then about a decade ago, the whole "strings attached to federal monies" scheme finally got declared unconstitutional. > -----Original Message----- > From: Creed Discussion List > [mailto:CREED-DISCUSS@WINDUPLIST.COM] On Behalf Of Keith P.
