I40 in AZ runs 85+ all day and night dispite the 75 posted limit. No more or fewer accidents than one would expect on a major freeway.
Modern cars cruise at 85 like old ones did at 40...and do it safer thanks to better handling/suspensions.

Heck, my father did 140 MPH in a 1968 Buick Wildcat on I-95, I remember him taking even the 1973 Pontiac Catalina up to 110+
