Across the United States, maximum speed limit laws vary dramatically. In the mid-1990s, many states increased speed limits to 75 mph on select roads. More recently, some states have established speed limits greater than 75 mph. The TRB National Cooperative Highway Research Program's NCHRP Web-Only Document 328: Safety Effects of Raising Speed Limits to 75 mph and Higher is supplemental to NCHRP Research Report 1006: Guide to Understanding Effects of Raising Speed Limits.
