Oregon had been among a handful of states where the highest speed limit was still 65 mph. Rep. Phil Barnhart, a Eugene Democrat, lamented the bill to raise the limit. Barnhart harkened to the 1970s, when speed limits were lowered under President Jimmy Carterâs administration amid a national oil shortage.
Since that time, we as a nation have hit the gas. Four states â Idaho, Texas, Utah and Wyoming â now have top authorized limits of at least 80 mph. A dozen more states have top speed limits of 75 mph, including Kansas, Louisiana, Maine, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma and South Dakota.
