Montana to Raise Speed Limit to 80 MPH on Some Highways

I lived in Montana and Wyoming when there was no speed limit. I was pulled over in my awesome Ford Thunderbird. I was doing 135 mph, but an officer pulled me over for having a taillight out. Dang! I miss those days. Well, they're kind of coming back again ... just not in Washington! A new law in Montana will raise the speed limit on most highways to 80 mph on Oct. 1. Looking forward to my travels back and forth to Montana and Wyoming!

I hope this speed limit catches on in the state of Washington -- at least in some areas. It would be nice to go a little faster than 70 mph.
