This special episode will be extended to 45 minutes and callers will be absoultely welcome.
Thanks in advance for listening and for calling in.
Here are my thoughts on what the speed limits on interstates (and interstate-grade roadways) should be in Georgia: speeds inside of I-285 should be between 60 and 65 mph; 60 in Downtown and 65 outside of Downtown. I-285 should be posted at 70 mph, as well as other freeways outside of I-285. Also, the minimum speed should be raised from 40 mph. If the speed limit is 65, the minimum speed should be 50. If it's 70, the minimum speed should be 55.
Freeways are for the fast moving traffic, not slow moving traffic.
