Texas is the last state in the nation that still imposes different speed limits on its highways depending on whether it is daytime or nighttime. Roads marked 70 MPH during the day can only be legally driven at 65 MPH when its dark. Big rig trucks must also obey specially lowered speed limits. The state House Transportation Committee yesterday filed a favorable report on legislation that would simplify the Lone Star State's speed laws and boost the speed limit in most rural areas."A difference in vehicle speeds can contribute to accidents," the House committee report explained. "HB 1353 seeks to minimize the number of accidents that can occur when cars and trucks change lanes or pass or tailgate slower-moving vehicles by removing the different, lower speed limit for heavy trucks."2011 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 Photo Gallery2012 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Coupe Photo Gallery2012 BMW 6-Series Coupe Photo Gallery2011 Geneva Motor Show Photo GalleryLamborghini Showcase Photo GalleryAutoSpies.com Photo GalleriesIf you want to see your photos running on our homepage photo ticker, be sure to upload your photos on the go by sending them to Mobile@AutoSpies.com Share on FacebookRead Article
