"let the traffic engineers run simulations and adjust those limits to maximize flow and minimize accident rates"

Wasn't there a discussion about how it's hard to raise a speed limit in an area? If the safe / max flow speed turns out to be higher than it currently is, I suspect it would be hard to get it raised. I am in great support of this idea, though..

I'd also like more aggressive variable speed limits instead of "60 all the time, between bone-dry land and torrential rain"




I don't recall that discussion, but it would be great if you or someone else could post a link to it.
